In addition to these six 140FW F-16s, it appears the VMFA-115 F/A-18A++s relocated from Bahrain for the Eager Lion exercise in Jordan. Any indication yet whether they are staying on in Jordan after the exercise as in the case of the F-16s?

These 4 USMC Ospreys were deployed in Moron and were replaced by that 4 Ospreys which passed at Lajes two weeks ago.
Another flight was by two SOS Ospreys.
