Capt. Seth Freeman, an Air National Guard pilot from the 187th Fighter Wing currently on training orders at Eglin Air Force Base, talks about his experience flying both the F-16 Fighting Falcon and F-35 Lightning II, along with some differences in the two.

The General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon is a single-engine multirole #military​ fighter aircraft originally developed by General Dynamics for the United States #AirForce​. Designed as an air superiority day fighter, it evolved into a successful all-weather multirole aircraft.

The Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II is an American family of single-seat, single-engine, all-weather stealth multirole combat #aircraft​ that is intended to perform both air superiority and strike missions. It is also able to provide electronic warfare and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance capabilities.
