riggerrob 558 #5 April 13, 2020 Amazing how an American civilian can own more first-rate fighter jets than more than a hundred smaller air forces. Since the Royal Australian Air Force spent plenty of money on upgrades, these F-18s can still operate in the front lines with modern NATO forces. And these ex-Royal Australian Air Force F-18A jets will only be used as "opposing forces" to train American pilots, JTACS, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
