Questions from a possible F-16 buyer
We get a lot of criticism from the F18s, and a few others, because we are a definite threat to their growth! That has made us a little defensive.
The combination of performance, versatility and light weight makes the F16 tough to beat. That makes other classes nervous.
One issue about Kevlar...it's harder to repair since is doesn't like to be sanded. If you hit rocks that damage the hulls, even Kevlar will need repairing.
Does the F16 float & support crew if both hulls swamped? (That's a class rule for Tornado).

Yes; class rules state there must be a certain amount of stuff in the hulls such as foam for this reason.
