……..

I’d consider the Belgian Air Component a ‘small air force’. Just because it is well-equipped and trained, doesn’t make it any bigger.
They’re bound to get some real add-on capability with the A400M and who knows, but they might end up with F-35’s, albeit a smaller number, to replace the Falcons.

Yes, of course, but let’s not confuse VIP-Falcon’s & Fighting Falcons..:)

(our “future” ‘F-35’s will remain a bad dream…:D ) :
