Thanks again for the updates.

During March a total of 10 F-16's were delivered to EPMM in 2 flights on 17 and 31 March.

The J-060, J-512 and J-546 arrived from SABCA at Volkel, the latter two were part of the delivery flight on the 31st.

The Netherlands and Romania have signed a letter of intent to transfer the 18 Dutch F-16's, operated by the EFTC, to Romania. Final agreement and handover is expected during 2025 as the Netherlands has committed the F-16's to the EFTC until the end of this year.
