They have two seater F16s, prob for training on that platform.

I don't think thats correct for this particular aircraft, my understanding is that preliminary training is done on a sim, and once passed the sim training, the F-16 pilot flies with an instructor in another jet.
I am not claiming that other platforms don't have two seater variants for training, a lot of them probably do.
EDIT: Just checked Wikipedia, maybe I am mistaken. B/F variants are two seat.. interesting.
