31 Baza Lotnictwa Taktycznego (31st Air Base) is the largest Polish Air Force unit and on August 23, 2007 Polish Air Force 6. Eskadra Lotnictwa Taktycznego (6th Tactical Squadron) / 31 Baza Lotnictwa Taktycznego (31st Air Base) received Lockheed F-16D 4084 c/n JD-9 (US Military serial 03-0084). This aircraft took part in NATO Tiger Meet 2014 held at Schleswig-Jagel, Germany and hosted by Taktisches Luftwaffengeschwader 51 'Immelmann' (Tactical Airwing 51). At the conclusion of the 10 day event, 6. elt was awarded the “Best Flying Unit” trophy.

The F-16 Fighting Falcon was produced by General Dynamics who became Lockheed who then merged with Martin Marietta to become Lockheed Martin. The F-16 entered service in January 1979 as a multi-role jet fighter that evolved into an all-weather multi-role aircraft capable of sustaining 9-g turns. The F-16 is relatively inexpensive to purchase and maintain so the U.S. and 25 other countries added it to their inventory. The Fighting Falcon is referred to by its pilots as the “Viper” and will remain in USAF service until 2025.
