Just a thought line, now the successors are not standing in line just at the right time:
What if the RNLAF F-16 Falcon/Vipers are all used up when the replacements are still not available?
What will Dutch Defence need to do?
1) stop all jet operations untill the new aircraft are available?
2) hire some F-16A/B ADF like the Italians?
3) lease some JAS-39 from the Swedish?
4) ....
Anyone with soms thought on this not so unbelievable possibility?
