DCS: F-16C adds a simulated F-16C Viper to DCS World. You fly the single-seat, single-engine multirole fighter, carrying out air-to-air and air-to-ground missions with its radar, sensors and weapons. Developed in the 1970s, the F-16 has been manufactured in more than 4,500 units and is operated by 26 countries for roles including air superiority, close air support, precision bombing, air defense suppression and reconnaissance.

The F-16C Viper

The Viper has a reclined seat designed to help pilots tolerate high G forces and a single-piece bubble canopy for visibility and comfort. Its F-110-GE-129 engine has a thrust ratio greater than 1:1. The nose houses an APG-68(V)5 multifunction radar, and the aircraft can carry sensors including the Litening targeting pod and HARM Targeting System (HTS).

For air-to-air combat, you can use Sidewinders, AMRAAMs and an internal 20mm M61A1 six-barrel Gatling gun. Its air-to-ground options include general-purpose bombs, rockets, canister munitions, Mavericks, and laser- and GPS-guided bombs.

Flight and cockpit systems

The aircraft uses a Professional Flight Model and an authentic fly-by-wire Flight Control System. Its simulation models the engines, fuel, electrical, hydraulic, radio, lighting and emergency systems, among others; an auto-start option is also available.

The interactive cockpit supports mouse input and six degrees of freedom, with modeled switches and buttons. Its displays include Color Multifunction Display (CMFD) symbology, Horizontal Situation Display (HSD) format and Head-up Display (HUD) symbology, alongside digital TACAN and an Electronic Horizontal Situation Indicator (EHSI). The simulation also features authentic F-16C sounds, animated control surfaces, lights, landing gear and damage modeling, plus virtual reality support.
