Just counting combat aviation projected to serve in near future and beyond: modernized F-16s, Su-30s, Rafale, F-15IDN (?), J-10, KF-21, KAAN. Can there be anything less than a logistics nightmare for a chronically under-funded air force?

Expect a re-opening of the DRC-M23 conflict imminently, as dubious peace talks in Qatar show zero sign of regaining momentum.
US-brokered efforts appear to have been almost entirely focused on securing mineral rights, using a thin 'ceasefire' veneer to justify investment.
