From what I've heard the Somalian troops have been good trainees, so my hopes are high that a little bit of air support will go a long wayThis better be worth it. Our airforce and hardware is already at maximum capacity.
Both Turkish trained Gorgor and US trained Danab are fighting tooth and nail with some wins and defeats but it is basically trying to swim against the current.From what I've heard the Somalian troops have been good trainees, so my hopes are high that a little bit of air support will go a long way
I wouldn't be surprised if we see more small F16 deployments as Kizilelma enters the inventory, we would be at the forefront of real MUT (manned-unmanned teaming) experience.With all the drone force we already have I was surprized to see F16 be deployed in Somalia. Probably it is not just for a few targets in our area of interest but the entire country that gets coverage. In any case Somalia is in talks with Pakistan to buy fighters and the Anka3 is likely counting down to get into the action. We may ground the F16 soon if we need to.
