Hellenic Air Force F-16C-52 was production number 99-1505, line number XK-6 with HAF serial 505 assigned to 343 Mira Asteri (Star) Squadron. 343 Mira and its sister squadron 340 Mira are assigned to the 115 Combat Wing based at Souda Airbase on the island of Crete. 340 Mira was the first squadron to receive the new 52 Block version of the F-16C Fighting Falcon while 343 Mira was the second. Although these squadrons are multi-tasked their main priority is a strong presence in the Aegean Region.

The F-16 Fighting Falcon is a single-engine fighter aircraft built by General Dynamics, that later became Lockheed Martin. Originally designed as an air superiority day fighter, it evolved into a successful all-weather multi-role aircraft that can perform various kinds of missions. First flown on January 20, 1974, the F-16 entered operational service with the USAF in January of 1979. It has an internal M61 Vulcan 20mm cannon and multiple locations for mounting missiles, bombs and other mission equipment. Although it is no longer being purchased by the USAF, improved versions of the F-16 are still being produced for export customers. Over 4,500 F-16s have been built for the U.S. Air Force and the air forces of twenty-five other nations.
