    ADF to LWF: Evolution of the General Dynamics F-16

    The F-16 has its origins in General Dynamics studies for the FX program. An RFP was issued in December 1965 for a Tactical Support Aircraft, specifying dual air-to-air and air-to-ground roles. The Air Force was thinking of a 60,000lb VG aircraft at this time. Grumman submitted a variable...
