The U.S. Abrams tank have been effectively defeated in Ukraine by Russia…
The F-16 is next…

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
"air superiority battle spaces where drones cannot swarm"
what? small drones are here to stay - en masse, no matter the superiority. Large drones are useless unless you want to bully poppy famers in sandals.
