Operational Dutch F-16's - opinion spinoff
I don't really think it's a good idea to post numbers and dates of equipment sent to Ukraine. Maybe wait a couple months or, ideally, wait for the war to be over before posting this. The aviation enthiousiasts should sit this one out.

Re: Operational Dutch F-16's
Completely agree with you. But there are people who care more for their personal list with numbers than the situation on the battlefield....

If you really think that intelligence service need this forum to gather their intel you are probably approaching it a bit naively!

Re: Operational Dutch F-16's
They use all sources. And it is much easier to just read info from a well informed forum than to post people at airbases to do your own observations.
Even lists of missions flown by particular aircraft (based on registration) are interesting for the other side as they give info on the serviceability and operational status of that particular aircraft and the aircraft in general.
