When they bulid the YF-16 at General Dynamics in the 70ies, I bet no one ever could estimate what a great success this design concept will be in future. Interestingly, its competitor, the YF-17 Cobra (from Northrop), who lost the competition by the USAF, became a great success too with the NAVY and finally evolved into the famous F/A 18 Given, that both designs where mainly done some 40 years ago, it's amazing that they are still in service today (and their successor versions are still "state of the art" and highly capable), and they won't disappear any time soon!
Great image!
