    I am curious as to why you did not have the HMD (Helmet Mounted Display) on for the F-16, it's by-far one of the most useful items it has. Did the version of the F-16 we sent o Ukraine Not come with the HMD? or did you just not have it on for this video? Curious to know your answer, especially if the Export F-16's don't have it or something? or at least not for Ukraine?

      @@helminsen As part of the MLU upgrade, there was no helmet sight for the F-16, all F-16s from Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands and Norway were Block 10 and block 15 versions with the MLU upgrade, 25 years ago, Belgium will not give a single machine with the justification that the machines are not already suitable for flight operations. They didn't even go through the modernization to all M6 Tape and M7 levels, most of them stayed with the M5 because the subsequent updates were uneconomic due to the decommissioning of the machines and the replacement of the F-35.
