General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon QF-16

The QF-16 is a Boeing conversion of retired F-16A/B airframes (drawn from Blocks 15, 25 and 30) into full-scale unmanned aerial targets, replacing the QF-4 Phantom II-derived drones. It retains an optional manned flight capability for ferry flights; in drone mode it is remotely piloted and can maneuver up to the airframe's structural limits, being expended in live-fire exercises with missiles or gunfire. The first fully unmanned flight took place on 19 September 2010, and the USAF has operated them from Tyndall AFB and Holloman AFB since 2013.
