The FFA P-16 is one of the few jet fighters developed domestically by Switzerland. It was designed to take off from unprepared short runways in the mountains; elements of this design philosophy can be seen in its short but large wings and high-thrust engine.

Its equipped with two high-velocity HS 825 30 mm cannons with powerful HE rounds, along with a wide variety of ordnance. It can carry two AIM-9B missiles for enemy aircraft, along with various bombs of different calibers, including napalm. It’s also equipped with a variety of unique rocket options, including the domestic Type R80 SURA rockets with both HEAT and HE warheads. It also carries 44 SNEB rockets in an internal bay, which can be fired in sets of four once extended.

The P-16 is a fast multirole jet fighter with impressive low-speed performance thanks to its large wing area, meaning you can still dogfight effectively while performing close air support.
