From the manufacturer:
The XF-2 is the newest-generation support fighter of the Japanese Air Self-Defense Forces. To counter the threat of enemy fighters or bombers, the JASDF employs the F-15J Eagle, while the F-1 support fighter has been employed to counter sea-based and land-based threats (surface vessels and tanks) since 1975. However, the F-1 is aging, and retirement of the type has commenced. To replace the F-1, joint U.S.-Japan development of a successor based on the General Dynamic F-16 Falcon was carried out. Originally called the FS-X, the resulting aircraft looks much like the F-16 Falcon, but the internal systems are almost completely different, employing the latest state-of-the-art technologies.
