An F-16 fighter jet typically burns around 3,000 to 5,000 pounds of fuel per hour during combat operations, depending on factors such as speed, altitude, and mission profile. In a more efficient cruising mode, fuel consumption can drop to approximately 1,200 pounds per hour. However, during takeoff and high-speed maneuvers, fuel consumption can spike significantly. Overall, the exact fuel burn can vary widely based on the specific mission and operational conditions.
