Re: F-16 IS VULNERABLE BEFORE INDIAN Su-30MKIs
Iranian order was cancelled in the 1970s at that time F-16 was state of the art it was because of the revolution not because it was obsolete
Austria and New zealand due to financial reasons more than anything else(Austrians still fly the ancient Drakens last time I checked)
F-16 was never the best fighter in the world the F-15 was much better all respects and it entered service earlier.
Look down shoot down capability of F-16 was virtually useless without the AIM-120 and that was not common with the non-US airforces till the mid ninties(IDAF got its after 1997)
