01 — The Opportunity

An Exclusive
Window.

We have an exclusive window to acquire two F-16 Block D fighter aircraft — each with approximately 3,000 airframe hours — at a total investment of $12–13 million (~$6–6.5M per aircraft). These are among the most iconic military platforms ever built. Bringing them into civilian and defense-adjacent operations opens a category of business that virtually no private operator has unlocked at scale.
