Oh man, I really hope not. Poland ought to get a full tree, especially with its diversity of ground vehicles and modifications.
It matters because if it’s a
US F-16, it would go to the US, the reason Germany got a hunter is because it is Swiss (still not a good reason, could have added the FFA P-16 instead)

O.o
I take it you’re talking about the F-16C Block 30? If so, it was included in the German air force roster, but served at Ramstein AFB as part of the US military. I’m getting ahead of the question, were there German pilots there or were they trained to fly these planes - Yes

Ok, thank you
What about the Swiss FFA P-16 prototype?
He’s low-ranking. The list is compiled taking into account 7 ranks and so on, with the only exception being jet attack aircraft that carry high-precision and modern weapons

Support the theme with an asset
I see that this thread has grown.
F-7M Airguard (tested by the FAA during the 80’s trying to avoid the British blockade, looking for replacements for war casualties)
Was going through old East German aircraft procurement documents and found this.
Link:
Can’t be confused the Mig-29 because it’s says they were ordered in 1987 while the MiGs were ordered in 1988 and the source only mentions the MiG-29 once in 1989.
Would also make some sense as this is around the time east Germany started to trial/plan for introduction of more modern Soviet stuff like the Tor-M1, 2S6, and T-72B.
Also love the DCS East German Flanker skin

ehhh i think we would have known about any german SU 27s, they propably never arrived or sth happend afterwards that the order changed?
Probably never received them as the export model of he Su-27 wasn’t ready till 1990 or 1991.
Nice find, if you find anything else don’t hesitate to send it here

I think that these orders were planned, since serial production of the Su-27 in the USSR officially began in 1985, and orders are placed much earlier than export production. Considering also the fact that the information is in the USA storage
question is would that be enough to justify the addition since they officaly got ordered?xD
