Just like the F-16, newer ones have more power but are heavier and the originals that were lighter, flew better.
Hi Sig,
Been a while for me brother, I'm old school, 25 years in the BLK 30, 9 rotations to the desert and alot of years. No substitute for HP, GE-F110 Block 30 served me well, until I met the F22. I retired glad to know it's on our side.
Wait till you fight a Raptor....Fight's over!

PS: Of course this has nothing to do with the original question. Light weight is key in an RV...
