The canopy comes down. And the f16 takes off without it. It happened last week, at tindle air force base in florida. And although Unmanned Aircraft are everywhere these days, it still makes you do a doubletake. The f16 is being flown by Remote Control from a ground station and is able to perform all the maneuvers it could if a pilot were in the cockpit. Climb to 40,000 feet, fly faster than the speed of sound and turn so sharply, the g forces could make you back out. No, this is not a faster, more agil killer drone. Its a master, more accurate target. The air force has been doing this for decades am but the current model target, a remote version of the f4, just doesnt have the moves of a modern fighter aircraft. Now, pilots will starl start going up against the leaner, meaner f16 in dog fights. And occasionally even shoot one down. Which is only sort of okay with boeing test pilot, jason clements.
