Agree with what you said, but to be correct, those are F-18s in the movie, not F-16s.

Except for the part where Will Smith makes his way back to his "Navy" base, and you can see an F-16 tail sticking out of the wreckage, with "LF" on it, indicating it is from Luke AFB.

That always bothered me for some reason.

Thanks.

Odd that they did that. I've been close to Luke and seen the F-16s :) And in Texas. It's probably why I generically refer to fighter jets as F-16s. Funny place for a Naval base, lol.
