About The F-16 Viper & The Air Combat Command Demonstration Team
The Air Combat Command F-16 Viper Demonstration Team at Shaw AFB, S.C., performs precision aerial maneuvers. Their maneuvers demonstrate the unique capabilities of the Air Force’s premier multi-role fighters, the F-16 Fighting Falcon. This team also works with the Air Force Heritage flight. These precision aerial maneuvers exhibit the professional qualities the Air Force develops in the people who fly, maintain and support these aircraft.
The Lockheed Martin F-16 Viper: The F-16’s official name is “Fighting Falcon”, but “Viper” is commonly used by its pilots and crews, due to a perceived resemblance to a viper snake as well as the Battlestar Galactica Colonial Viper starfighter. In addition to active duty U.S. Air Force, Air Force Reserve Command, and Air National Guard units, the aircraft is also used by the USAF aerial demonstration team, the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds, and as an adversary/aggressor aircraft by the United States Navy. The F-16 has also been procured to serve in the air forces of 25 other nations. As of 2015, it is the second most common currently operational military aircraft in the world.
