016 flew again on 8/8/24, no tailband, no tailbadge, sticker as reg, translation block under canopy removedJPS wrote: ↑02 Aug 2024, 17:04 Thanks again for the updates.
The Dutch Minister of Defence announced that the 18 F-16's allocated to the EFTC in Romania will remain available until the end of 2025. In addition it was mentioned that the announced 24 ex-Dutch F-16 for the Ukraine will include €450 million worth of ammunition.
Although not confirmed several reports indicate that Ukraine received 6 ex-Dutch F-16's, likely out of the arsenal of the EFTC based at Fetesti. First sightings of F-16's above Ukraine without markings were shared on social media:
The J-020 went for maintenance to SABCA on July 2nd, with the J-016 returning to Volkel on the same day.
