The U.S. Abrams tank have been effectively defeated in Ukraine by Russia…
The F-16 is next…
@AbjectVicunaLibertarian3wks3W
The F16 is just an Abrams tank with wings.
That's if it ever even makes it into the theatre. Which I doubt.
"firepower advantage". LOL.
It is the right move. Abrams is designed for combined arms and air superiority battle spaces where drones cannot swarm, target and disable them at their weak points (engine vents, ammo storage and tracks). Don't waste the firepower advantage until the F-16s come into play

You know when the U.S. had air superiority? When it invaded countries with no functioning air force and no modern air defense. You know who the F-16 will work against? The same defenseless farmers or outdated militaries the Abrams worked against.
