And the whole world ?

I'm guessing that it the next question


- Over 30 Stealths produced and shipped to places like UK, USA, Canari Islands, Spain, Holland, some middle eastern country

- 20 Taipans + spi in Signapore

- 4 or 5 of them in Thailand at last count (Early 2004)

- 7 in the netherland and working out a deal for the 8th. 3 more assured on the line as buyers for this year.

- South Afica (they really want to be counted so we will) about 20

- Australia (A big secret in order to not piss off the Taipan 4.9 OD class) but we have 6 public F16's over there. The remainder is in hiding.

I'm not counting the Spitfires in order to be conservative but there are suppost to be some 50-80 boats around of this make. I have never been able to get a good confirmation on this and some other sources mention the number of boats is a little below 50. Make your own appreciation of the situation here


So where are we at now (ex spitfires)?


30 + 20 + 5 + 7 + 20 + 6 = 88 Boats excl. the USA

So in total in the world makes 29 + 88 = 117 F16's

We are a bit spread out but at least we have promising beach heads in several different area's/continents so when it grows it can boom. We are also not to dependent on one particular area. This makes us quite resilliant with regard to bad luck like exchange rates.
