Op 2 juli zijn zes Belgische F-16’s veilig en wel op de vliegbasis van Florennes geland. Sinds oktober 2014 voerden zij missies uit tegen de terreurgroep Islamitische Staat (IS) in Irak van op een vliegbasis in Jordanië.Operation Desert Falcon zit er op.
De vlucht naar huis duurde zes uur. “Het voelt goed om weer thuis te zijn”, vertelt één van de piloten, die gezien de omstandigheden liever anoniem wil blijven. “De sfeer zat goed en iedereen is veilig en wel terug.”
Naast verkenningsopdrachten, voerden de F-16’s kinetische operaties uit boven Iraaks grondgebied. Over de opdrachten zelf wordt er met enige voorzichtigheid gesproken. “De dagdagelijkse opdrachten voerden we voornamelijk onder Belgen uit, maar af en toe hadden we ook de gelegenheid om met de andere coalitiepartners te werken”, vertelt de piloot. “De vluchten duurden ongeveer vijf uur en dit zowel overdag als ’s nachts. Die wissel voel je wel, maar er was voldoende rust om de baterijen op te laden.” De piloten werden goed op de hoogte gehouden van alle activiteiten van IS en de grijpende beelden op de sociale media ontbraken er niet aan. “Als je dat ziet dan weet je waarom je daar bent”, benadrukt een andere piloot.
Op 24 september besliste de ministerraad om zes F-16’s en een groep van 120 militairen in steun naar Jordanië te sturen.
