FS2002 General Dynamics F-16XL Super Falcon, an arrow-shaped wing, advanced performance experiment from F-16 Fighting Falcon. As the first experimental prototype of F-16E, F-16XL made its initial flight in July 1982, but with all its nice looking delta wing configuration, F-16XL failed to be officially adopted after all. Two prototypes were transferred to NASA in 1992 to be employed for HSCT research activities there. This FS2002 model is depicted as one in virtual operation camouflage scheme of USAF. Featuring moving ailerons, flaps, rudder, air brakes, landing gears, landing lights, and landing gear covers in smooth animation. Pilot head turns in sync with left/right turns. Textures render air superiority gray colors, FS36118, FS36270 and FS36375 in the most precise hues attainable, with realistic weathering and service stains for better realism. By Shigeru Tanaka.
