The interface adaptor is basically an electronic component that converts weapons control instructions from the F-16 Stores Management System into instructions that can be interpreted by the weapon (Harpoon in this case).The work started during Operation Desert Storm on Korea-based USAF Block 30G aircraft. Two factors complicated the actual development of the interface adaptor and algorithms. First of all, the "heavy stations" (hardpoints 3 and 7, capable of carrying a heavy weapon such as the Harpoon) did not offer access to the 1553 data bus. Second, there were some initial software problems with the jet as well. To circumvent the limitations, the AGM-65 Maverick interface was re-used initially. The Maverick interface did not require the F-16 SMS to do anything extra, as all control software was in the adapter kit. Weapon modes and targeting were all selected on the video provided in lieu of the normal Maverick video.As the Storm wound down, USAF lost interest and the initial effort was cancelled. The project was picked up again later when foreign F-16 customers expressed interest in the Harpoon. By that time, the software problems had been solved and the Harpoon was properly integrated. The AGM-84 Harpoon was officially cleared on the F-16 on August 11th, 1994.All recent F-16 aircraft (block 20, 30/32, 40/42, 50/52, and 60) can be made Harpoon-capable. It requires the installation of the interface adapter, plus installation of system software that supports the Harpoon.<img src="http://www.f-16.net/modules/Gallery2/gallery2/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=47349&g2_serialNumber=3" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />F-16 LoadoutStations 3 and 7 can be wired to carry a single AGM-84.Operational UseOnly a limited number of F-16 customers use the Harpoon on their F-16s:    * Chile: The FACh's block 52 aircraft have Harpoon capability, but no missiles have been ordered    * Egypt: EAF Block 40 aircraft have Harpoon capability, no missile purchase yet    * Greece: HAF F-16 Block 52 aircraft armed with AGM-84 Harpoons were test-flown at Edwards AFB    * Israel: The IDF/AF is very likely to have Harpoon capability, but this is unconfirmed    * Oman: The RAFO purchased 20 missiles for its F-16 Block 50 fleet    * South Korea: The RoKAF Block 52 aircraft are Harpoon-capable, no confirmed missile purchase    * Taiwan: The RoCAF purchased 54 missiles for its F-16 Block 20 aircraft    * Turkey: The TUAF purchased 50 Harpoon missiles for their CCIP-upgraded F-16 Block 50 aircraft    * United Arab Emirates: The UAEAF's block 60 aircraft are Harpoon capable, and 52 missiles were purchased at the time of the Block 60 dealsaludos</blockquote>
