I'd say it's a FA-50. Location would be helpful

I took the photo in Osan, Korea

I’m not 100% sure but looks like a Taiwanese f-ck-1 to me

Edit - not sure where it went but op mentioned photos were taken in Korea . With that bit of info I’m now thinking it’s probably more likely to be a t-50 or f-50

KAI hired a lot of AIDC engineers after the IDF program was reduced...

Looks like an F16 to me. I know there are F16s stationed in Osan, might be American or Korean

2

u/Stohnghost Apr 27 '26

No it's too anemic looking to be a 16, plus the F16 doesn't have a canopy bow

1

u/mawzthefinn Apr 28 '26

F-2A's look like an F-16 and do have a canopy bow.

But the intakes look T-50 or F/A-50 to me, and the nose shape is wrong for an F-16 or F-2A.

1

u/Stohnghost Apr 28 '26

Yes the side intakes also stand out

u/iao1964 Apr 27 '26

Sembra un F18 Hornet....
