Hi everyone,
After a stay of 43 days on Zokniai Airbase at Siauliai I finally got home last monday (5th of july) with some pics from the Belgian F-16AM’s there, and some pics of the Lithuanian Air Force. I wanted to take some pics of the Danish Airforce F-16’s too, but was too late (redeploying means lots of work and not much time to do other things). I can give you this: the Danish Airforce F-16’s were/are armed with just 2 AIM-9’s and a ventral fuel tank (I suppose this is a weight-reducing measure as the runway is in a very bad shape), whereas Belgium deployed them with 2 AIM-9’s and 2 AMRAAM’s, plus two underwing fuel tank.
Will try to attach the pics here (but I’m afraid they are a bit big).
