Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The General Dynamics F-16XL is a derivative of the F-16 Fighting Falcon, with a cranked-arrow delta wing. It was entered in the United States Air Force's (USAF) Enhanced Tactical Fighter (ETF) competition but lost to the F-15E Strike Eagle. Several years after the prototypes were shelved, they were turned over to NASA for aeronautical research. In 1977, the F-16XL started out as the F-16 SCAMP (Supersonic Cruise and Maneuver Prototype) at General Dynamics Fort Worth. Under the leadership of Harry Hillaker (father of the original F-16), the original goal of the program was to demonstrate the applicability of supersonic transport technologies to military aircraft. That year, under the supervision of Hillaker and Jim Gordon, Andrew Lewis was given a supposedly quick project to study the applicability of supersonic transport technologies to military aircraft. The big wing generated a lot of lift, and typical aerodynamic limitations of delta wings were overcome by the F-16's relaxed static stability. Kenny Barnes led the work into tweaking the F-16s electronic flight control system to allow control at high angles of attack.
