Those A4 Skyhawks must be so clapped out by now.

The Argentinian A-4s are not standard Skyhawks, but A-4AR Fightinghawks, i.e. A-4Ms modernized with F-16 avionics.

The Argentine government's neglect of its armed forces in recent years has meant that after the Mirages interceptors were withdrawn, they have not been replaced. As a result, the Fightinghawks found themselves taking on the interceptor role as well.

But they are due to be replaced shortly by 24 ex-Danish F-16s.

Yes we had the A4K Skyhawks in the RNZAF which had the same setup with F-16 avionics. But they were still very clapped out by the time they were retired.

A few minutes ago, Argentina bought 24 F-16AM/BMs from Denmark.

Pretty sure they are photoshopped, the images were used in the initial announcement of the purchase
