The F-16s, alongside two Swedish-made Gripens, were tasked with neutralising Cambodian artillery and personnel reportedly operating in the contested areas. The Royal Thai Air Force confirmed that all aircraft involved in the mission returned safely to base following successful strikes on both targets.
Thailand’s current fleet of F-16s includes 36 single-seat F-16A and 14 two-seat F-16B aircraft. These aircraft remain in service from an original total of 52 F-16A/Bs acquired through four separate orders from the United States, along with seven additional units donated by Singapore.
