yes but the f-16 wouldnt be aircraft of choice then in a close in engament? I always thought that the 16 was the aircraft of choice if a fight was to get close. This is because when i read current spects on aircraft, they say the 16 will outperform other agile aircraft in close such as- f-18, mirage2000, mig-29, f-15, f-14...
I ask what airforce would suit me best because USAF have f-22, JSF and will still have 15 and 16 available, where the RAF will have typhoon. I feel i will get more combat experience if i join USAF, this is because they seem to be much more involvment around the world thus, when things hot up there pilots tend to get more real combat time then the RAF.

[Yes, I mean it. I am currently an Instructor on the AT-38 and I haven't flown the F-16 since 1999 and we flew block 15's, currently beeing upgraded with Midlife Update (MLU).
You are never wrong to go with the F-16. It is the best jet out there from a pilots perspective. Bubble canopy, tiltback seat, side stick etc. It is a dream to fly. Sure in a dogfight there are aircraft that can outperform the F-16, but 95+% of future engagements are going to be BVR or atleast over within 90 degrees of turn.
The F-16 is the Mustang of over time. It is a dream to fly.
Pick the country you like the best. Both will have great aircraft by the time you get through your training.

when you say you havnt got any idea, do you mean it. Or are you just not aloud to say? Anyway, so would i be wrong in choosing a 16 as the plane to be in during a dogfight? Also i have staring my flying training, and as i am both American and British, which airforce do you think would best suit me after i finnish my flying training? Im doing my flying training in the UK.
