It absolutely does. You can't just give airplanes...there is Maintenance Training and a logistical trail, there is pilot training pipeline...can't just throw a brand new pilot in an F-16. These months are actually a conservative estimate!

I understand. My point is, aren't we in YEAR TWO of this conflict? Weren't F-16s part of the original discussion, way back when? Wasn't it just as complex then as it is now? US is slow walking F-16s, and can't just come out and say it's a NO-GO, because it's a NO-GO.

MAJ Montgomery Granger at lest the tanks have arrived.
“The bottom line [is] that the scale of what we’re doing there is historic,” Brown said. “Things that used to take months and weeks to get through the approval process across the interagency [are] happening in a manner of hours.”
