Good pics, I can see the F-16 has two drop tanks, two AMRAAM's on the wingtip rails under the wings, and prob two Sidewinders under the wing on the wingtip rails.

AIM-9s are always on the outer rails. (Not trying to nitpick - the lightest ordnance goes outboard.)

Thanks for posting all of these photos MFH!! Excellent. Even on a coal fired modem, I'm more than happy to wait for them to download.

Actually F-16's usually carry the AMRAAMs on the outside wingtip rails now, you can see they are longer then AIM-9's, here's a pic of it.
