During a combat deployment against ISIS in support of Operation Inherent Resolve, F-16A J-624 was deployed to Jordan to fly missions over Iraq and Syria. Here, the Viper is seen in that dusty environment, equipped with AIM-120 AMRAAMs on its wingtips and two GBU-12 Paveway IIs as well as a single GBU-54 JDAM underneath its wings. This is a Fokker built F-16A, it made its first flight on 30 Nov'82, was delivered to the KLu on 6 Dec'82, was modified to AM in '99 and withdrawn from use in Apr'20. The F-16 was sold to Belgium as 'LB-061' where it acts as an instructional airframe at Kleine Brogel.
