LAST EDITED ON 01-06-01 AT 06:17Â PM (GMT)[p]Yep, it’s finally confirmed.
Belgium is going to buy 7 Airbusses A400 for our Airforce + 1 for the Lux. AF to replace the C-130’s. A very good idea of our prime minister because now we can prove we’re really the bests within NATO for tactical Military Transport. With some delays for the JSF but it WILL come, so we’ll have a next generation fighter for the new millenium to replace the F-16.
Besides that, by the end of the year, Belgium will form one United airforce together with Luxembourg, the first combined airforce in the world, it will be renamed the BLUXAF i think. Also a very good idea, so now all those Awacs are ours 🙂
We’ll also buy a transport ship.
God bless Belgium!!
