I don't understand as to why people unrelated to military or defense ministry have anything to say regarding equipment procurement.
Well, I suppose Belgium has decided to terminate their whole military by giving their defense budget to Lockheeb Martin so that's irrelevant really.
Jacob Brown
Why not just buy new F-16s?
Ethan Johnson
Because that would be a very intelligent choice and intelligence is racist.
Levi Wilson
You are not allowed to make rational decisions in western democracies.
Joseph Price
Because the guys who made that decision recieved briefcases full of cash and, given it's Belgium we're talking about, a bunch of underage virgins courtesy of Lockheed.

And once again the F-35 cost is… well over $130M+ per plane, just like UK, just like Japan, etc…
Also this is 100% a luggenpresse report "look Lockheeb is totally cheap".
Belgium is one of the few countries tasked by NATO to drop B61 nukes and of course the USAF doesn't integrate the "high technology" that is a clamp and a cable to drop them on non-US aircraft (read they don't certifiate other planes).
They can only buy American planes, it's F-16V or F-35.
They should have taken F-16V.
