Description
This is another F-16CM Block 42 from Luke AFB, AZ preparing for takeoff. The final stop before taking the runway is called "EOR", or "End of Runway" (military types are very creative with naming things). Here, the maintenance troops arm up the chaff and flares as well as give the jet one final look over to make sure it's ready to fly. In the business, this is calling "Arming" or "Last Look."
This Viper had just completed the process and was about to depart for a night Close Air Support training mission. The jet is from the 310th Fighter Squadron, as indicated by the stripe at the top of the tail.
