You guys do know that the fighters we have are vastly different than what we sell to other countries right. While they may look like an F16, our jets have different (superior) components. Some parts might interchange, but I would venture to say that a lot would not.

Some of you ex-crew chiefs might add to this.

The same goes for some missile systems we export to friendly countries. I worked on a few where some of the electronic assemblies would have certain functions not in the final product for a foreign customer, like the ECCM circuitry for certain missiles.
