But the Iranians did retrofit them with indigenous parts, and they also have a number of French Mirages as well as MiG-29s, which are built to counter the F-16 generation of fighters. He could only fight them off if they didn't overwhelm him and swarm him with cannon fire and AAMs.
The pilot must have balls the size of grapefruits.
