Usage and loading experience of the RNLAF with their F-16 aircraft is completely different from the ones assumed in the design phase. Hence, re-assessment of the Damage Tolerance and Durability performance is required. The National Aerospace Laboratory (NLR) took part in this re-assessment which is carried out by General Dynamics. The present paper describes the NLR contribution.
