EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Short SD3-30-100 5N-AOX (msn SH3064) of the Royal Belgian Air Force, a Shorts Brothers F-16B Fighting Falcon from the 349 Squadron based at RAF Lossiemouth in Scotland. The image was captured in 1986, during a time when the Belgian Air Force was enhancing its fleet with advanced fighter aircraft. The Shorts SD3-30-100, also known as the F-16B, is a single-engine, multirole fighter aircraft, manufactured by General Dynamics (now Lockheed Martin). This specific aircraft, 5N-AOX, is seen here in its distinctive camouflage livery, adorned with the insignia of the 349 Squadron. The F-16B was a significant addition to the Belgian Air Force's inventory, providing unparalleled agility, maneuverability, and firepower. The photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, capturing the essence of aviation history. The F-16B, with its powerful engines and advanced avionics, represented the pinnacle of aeronautical engineering and military aviation technology during the 1980s. This image serves as a testament to the rich history of the Royal Belgian Air Force and its commitment to maintaining a modern and capable fleet. The aircraft in the photograph, 5N-AOX, was part of the Belgian Air Force's fleet until its retirement. The F-16Bs were replaced by more modern variants, ensuring the Belgian Air Force remained at the forefront of military aviation technology. This photograph is an essential addition to any aviation enthusiast's collection, offering a glimpse into the past while showcasing the beauty and power of military aviation.
