      You need a fuck-ton of infrastructure to keep fighter jets flying. The service time to fight time ratio is ~18:1. Nothing but an established state has the organization and the logistics supply to keep one in the air.

          You still would need the help of the entire government to keep the jets flying and armed. No fuel delivery? Cut out of satelite usage? No GPS? You’re fucked and then put in jail and/or to death, because the US have death penalty

              What “you’re telling me” doesn’t make any sense. How on earth would holding a little airbase surrounded by the largest military force in the world, and a NATO member?
