F16 Training

I was out yesterday with my camera when I heard the sound of a fighter jet screaming overhead. This is nothing unusual as there is a Belgian Airforce base quite close to where I live. I managed to get a shot of the jet as it screamed past. Upon closer inspection I noticed a vulture painted on the tail of the plane. I was intrigued by this, so after a little research I found a lot more information. The plane is a two seater F16, one seat for the instructor, the other for the pilot.

I know that instructors and personnel were sent from the airbase in Belgium to train Ukrainian pilots in Denmark. I’m wondering if this plane was also used to train the Ukrainians.
