The F-16 aircraft can carry a variety of missiles, including the AIM-120 AMRAAM (Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missile) and the AIM-9 Sidewinder for air-to-air engagements. It can also be equipped with precision-guided munitions such as the AGM-65 Maverick and the AGM-88 HARM (High-speed Anti-Radiation Missile) for ground attack roles. Additionally, some variants can carry the AGM-154 JSOW (Joint Standoff Weapon) and a range of other munitions, enhancing its versatility in combat.
The number of missiles on a navy ship can vary widely depending on the type and class of the vessel. For example, destroyers and cruisers may carry dozens of missiles, such as Tomahawk cruise missiles or Standard missiles, while smaller ships like frigates might have fewer. Aircraft carriers typically do not carry missiles themselves but deploy aircraft that are armed with missiles. Overall, the missile capacity is determined by the ship's design and mission requirements.
Aircraft don't always "have" missiles. They are fitted with a mix of missiles or bombs according to each mission. The Tigershark was a fairly small aircraft, close to the ground and had limited hardpoints (where missiles are fitted) It could carry 2 Sidewinders and 2 of either Sparrow or Maverick, but 4 missiles was the limit.
No, India does not have F-16

Technically possible but practically impossible........unless it was on the tarmac Remember the two machines are designed for very different roles. The Hind is a ground attack aircraft whilst the F16 is (as its name suggests) a fighter. The F16 has everything in its advantage. Speed, weapons, technology and probably most significantly distance. It wouldn't take much for the F16 to knock a hind our the sky as the AMRAAM-120 (its principle medium range weapon) has a range of 48km or 30 miles. The hind would be history before it even knew the F16 was there. As a totally unrealistic setting - if for arguments sake the F16 was out of missiles ( at which point it would most likely bug out) and it chose to fight with guns then if by some miracle the f16 missed and the hind got a shot off with its gun and hit the F16 then yes I suppose it could down it.
producton aircraft would be something like a boeing, airbus, or even an f16 these are aircraft that are factory produced and sold to large companies.
The price for one is around 20-40 million dollars.
For usual configuration the f-16 carries 4 missiles at stations 1, 2, 8, and 9. It can carry AIM-9L/M SIDEWINDER, AIM-9X SIDEWINDER, AIM-120A AMRAAM, AIM-120B AMRAAM, AGM-65D/H/K MAVERICK, and AGM-88A HARM.
All of these missiles are different sizes, and carry different payloads.
The F-22 Raptor can carry a total of six air-to-air missiles in its internal weapons bays. Typically, it can be armed with a mix of AIM-120 AMRAAMs and AIM-9 Sidewinders, allowing it to engage enemy aircraft effectively while maintaining a low radar profile. Additionally, the aircraft has the capability to carry external munitions, but that would compromise its stealth characteristics.
The answer is yes. Supersonic aircraft can dodge from missiles. No one is going to say this is going to easy to shoot down supersonic planes. They travel at high speed making it very difficult to destroy these planes in the air. Lots of supersonic aircraft have radar that allows them to know that there is a missile become from behind them, they also heat up their anti-missile flares to get ready to dodge. This also allows them to intercept missiles to help them dodge. Some of these planes might carry weapons and can destroy anti-aircraft missile launchers.
Counterfire. Aircraft carriers only go to sea as part of carrier battle groups or carrier strike groups. The carrier is protected by three kinds of ships: cruisers, which carry a high-power radar called Aegis that can detect incoming missiles and that can launch anti-missile missiles, several frigates, which carry anti-missile missiles that are guided by the cruiser's radar, and submarines. Not only can this radar system detect a missile in flight and direct missiles to shoot them down, it can figure out where the missile was launched from and fire a missile at that place to destroy the launcher.
