The last of 128 F-16s produced for the Republic of Korea Air Force was completed on schedule last August, ending the successful coproduction partnership between South Korea and Lockheed Martin begun in 1991. This last aircraft, a Block 52 F-16, was part of a second round of production for the Korean fighter. South Korea was the first country to produce the F-16 under license; Korea Aerospace Industries served as prime contractor. In 1994, the ROKAF became the first US ally to fly the advanced Block 52 version of the F-16.
