RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL - Members of Special Police Operations Battalion (BOPE) participate in a mission in the alleys of a slum, or favela, in the area of Copacabana where fighting between the police and drug dealers is continuing on December 7, 2009 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It is estimated that there are over 1,000 favelas in Rio where violent crime is rampant. The police are attempting a softer touch in many favelas by participating in community policing after they clear the area of drug gangs. It is believed that the police want to continue with these programs citywide ahead of the 2016 Olympic Games. As Brazil prepares to host the 2016 Summer Olympics international scrutiny is falling on Rio de Janeiro`s favelas where over 5,000 people were murdered last year alone. In the last week violence in tourist areas has increased as drug gangs are increasingly reacting to an increased police presence in the favelas. In figures released Tuesday by the IBGE (Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística) statistics agency it was found that an average of 68 young Brazilian men died violently each day between 1998 and 2008. These numbers included murder, traffic accidents and gang violence involving the police. (Spencer Platt / Getty Images)

one of the Falcons is a UAE F16 Ean Improved model not in service with the USAF it's outfitted with A AN/APG 80 Radar, Conformal Fuel tanks GE F110 Engines of it Flight international is quoted as saying "this is the first time the US has sold a better aircraft[F-16] overseas than its own forces fly."

Don't let the number fool you the Mirage 2000 dates back too the 1970's, the Israelis Swore by them.

The Pakistani AF F7 is as old as they get a J7 licensed production Mig21 first hitting the skies in the 1960's this nimble Fighter is quite dated but with a good pilot it might put in it's part but it's got some issues like most Russian birds it has a limited range of sight for it pilot Italian Avionics keep these delta wing bandits fighting. here in the US American Aggressor Groups used F5 Tiger II's too simulate this type of fighter they found when compared too the real thing that the f5 was almost a perfect double in the way they performed. Although The USAF and The ISDF both also used a few captured versions.
