The US State Department has approved a military sale to the Philippine government for 20 F-16 Block 70 fighter jets, a full set of weapons, support systems, and training. The total procurement cost will be $5.58 billion, and it is said that the price per aircraft will exceed that of the latest model of the fifth-generation stealth aircraft F-35. In response to rising tensions in the Pacific region, the US State Department approved a military sale of $5.58 billion on April 1 to sell 20 Block 70/72 F-16 fighter jets, the latest model of the F-16 fighter jet, to the Philippines. The breakdown is as follows: 16 single-seat F-16C Block 70/72 and four two-seat F-16D Block 70/72, 24 F110-GE-129D or F100-PW-229 engines, advanced AESA radar, modular mission computer, and electronic warfare system. It also includes a wide range of weapons, including 112 AIM-120C-8 AMRAAM medium-range air-to-air missiles, 40 AIM-9X Sidewinder short-range air-to-air missiles, 60 Mk82 500-pound bombs, 60 Mk84 2,000-pound bombs, 36 small diameter bombs (SDBs), and JDAM kits. The Philippine Air Force does not have any fourth-generation fighter jets and will be significantly strengthened and modernized by the procurement of F-16s. ■Related videos    • フィリピン軍が米軍との軍事演習で唯一の中国製艦船を撃沈した意味      • 世界最強の戦闘機と言われるF-22がフィリピン空軍の韓国製FA-50に敗れる波乱      • F-16の供与数は100機超え！ギリシャ、ウクライナに32機の供与を表明！      • ウクライナ軍のF-16戦闘機が初撃墜記録を達成   We will explain the world's military, security, defense, and military news in an easy-to-understand and relaxed manner. #f16 #PhilippineMilitary #spratlyislands #f16viper #philippineairforce
