There are lots of F-16's as gate sentries, in museums and in the bone yard at Davis-Montham AFB. Let's not forget that the plane came into service in the early 1970's. Some have even been scrapped! Every US fighter (except for the F-22) came into service in the 1970's! Some , like the F-14, have come and gone. Others , like the F/A-18, started life as the F-17 (competeing against the the F-16, and losing). With the exception of the C-17,F-22 and certain models of the F/A-18, everything the US flies is old!
