The latest F-16Vs have arrived in Taiwan.
On October 2, 2026, the first two of the 66 F-16Vs purchased by Taiwan from the United States arrived in Taiwan.
But what exactly is the F-16V?
How does it differ from previous F-16s?
This video will clearly explain the features of the F-16V, focusing on the newly built F-16 Block 70 for Taiwan.
It features the latest AESA radar "AN/APG-83," a new mission computer, the "Viper Shield" electronic warfare system, a data link, and the AIM-120 AMRAAM.
While it looks like the familiar F-16, its internals have evolved significantly to cope with modern air combat.
Furthermore, why is Taiwan building 66 new F-16s now?
How will Taiwan's F-16Vs fare against the Chinese Air Force, which continues to modernize with aircraft such as the J-10C, J-16, and J-20?
This video examines the significance of the F-16V for Taiwan, including its coordination with ground radar and E-2K early warning aircraft.
