A Quick Reaction Alert (QRA) F-16AM hanging next to the KDC-10, just after it received fuel. The pilot "hangs on the wing", awaiting its wingman finishing its air-to-air refueling session. The J-879 is armed with two AIM-120 Advanced Medium Range Air to Air Missile (AMRAAM) on the wing tips (stations 1 and 9) and two AIM-9 Sidewinders underneath the wing (stations 2 and 8).
