Personally I think its a Hawk and not a Viper...

240 something knots over the end of the runway in level flight ( 0º AOA ) is not much speed for an F-16. I'm not sure an F-16 can even DO 240kts with 0º AOA.
Dont have any idea wheather it's a Hawk or not.

Agreed on the AI voice and the speed would be about right for any of the Hawk variants.

I believe the not a "Viper" eitier & am sure that the voice is Brit so stands to reason it is a Hawk or other a/c that has side mounted intakes (notice the bird come down the port side not center)
