AC-130 fag here. While in tech school, a T-38 with a nugget on his nickel ride pulled up too hard on a touch n go, stalled it out. The bird never got back above100 ft, but the nose dug at least 5 ft into that hard Texas dirt. So I could see a 16 at.9 mach doing some damage. But the one thing that wouldn't mesh is the sound. Falcons are VERY loud, high pitched. Thee's no mistaking one for a jumbo jet.

A small, maneuverable fighter would've had an easier time making that turn and descent, then leveling out than a jumbo jet would've had even getting low enough to make that hit. As for the wings, the Falcon has swept back wings.The spars would most likely have folded back and not snapped off. Remember, this aircraft is designed for high Gs, they don't just snap off. Commercial airliners are designed to be as light weight as possible, which is why they are torn to shreds by a bird strike. Also, Desert Storm put a great deal of strain on the entire 16 fleet. Many of them came home needing wings replaced. So there probably wouldn't have been a great deal of hours on those wings.
