FIGHTING FALCONS IN RUNWAY SHOW OF FORCES: Yes, on the runway. According to the DOD caption the photo captures a “show of forces display at Spangdahlem Air Base, Germany, Oct. 1, 2019.” In fashion shows models display clothes on the runway. So…in this show of forces is it fair to say the F-16s are modeling weapons? This fighter wing has a “suppression of enemy air defenses mission.” So…is this modeling fashioned for the Kremlin? Here’s another show of force, this one over the Baltic Sea (June 2016). Poles, Germans and Swedes fly with U.S. aircraft, including a BUFF. Yup, modeling in the BUFF.
