      I would have thought a condition was to not use them in Russia. Maybe the migs they have, now that they have F16 to replace them on home soil.

        That’s why they are capturing territories, so they can use f-16s in “Northern Ukraine”!

          I guess they could clear landing sites for quicker refueling? Or just eliminate the opponent.

        I hope they break that condition. Russia can’t blame us for their actions, we gave them the f-16s for defense it’s not our fault they use them for offense.

        They don’t need to operate in Russia. This close to the border, stand-off munitions are enough.

      Have been for a while. That was the purpose behind going after long-range ground radar and the couple AWACS Russia can still get off the ground.
