I’m not sure they WANT the Belgian troops there? They probably just burn down some field with their own ammo storages adjacent or so?

Many USA weapons systems come with a disclaimer that they can only be used against targets that the US agrees with. And we need to buy US ammunition.
I don’t see those F-16s supporting Ukraine any time soon.

I could swear I read somewhere the Ukrainians didn’t want the F16s just yet, because they would be an easy target. Belgium’s reaction was: ok, then WE will keep them for spare parts ourselves.
