This new decal sheet from Balkan Models includes markings for 6 different 1/144 F-16 Falcons.  

The General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon is a single-engine multirole fighter aircraft originally developed by General Dynamics for the United States Air Force. Designed as an air superiority day fighter, it evolved into a successful all-weather multirole aircraft. Over 4,500 aircraft have been built since production was approved in 1976. The Fighting Falcon is a fighter with numerous innovations including a frameless bubble canopy for better visibility, side-mounted control stick to ease control while maneuvering, a seat reclined 30 degrees to reduce the effect of g-forces on the pilot, and the first use of a relaxed static stability/ fly-by-wire flight control system helps to make it a nimble aircraft. 

Decal set covers F-16C version in different colors and markings. From one set you can built six (USAF, Royal Bahraini AF, Polish AF, Hellenic AF, Israeli AF, and Turkish AF) 1/144 scale models.
