My Grandmothers brother was an engineer at Edwards on these two... even snuck me a photo of the 16 many many years ago.
Sorry but that photo was lost during a divorce

Sorry, they are NOT in use today. The 2 YF-17's that were built are in museums. The YF-16 pictured above is hanging from the ceiling in a museum in Virgina.

My mistake. It reads as if those two aircraft pictured were updated. The word 'variants' was not used. Thank you though, I do know where the F-18 and F-16 came from.

Question- Who does the Air Force turn to for issues on the YF-17- Northrop-Grumman, or Boeing?

Northrup Grumman, Boeing just screws up fighters.
