X was sperging out hard on this a few days ago,
Qatar is buying F-15s, and part of the sales agreement is that their pilots come here and train on the platform. This is something the US has been doing routinely for 70 years. Saudi pilots came here to train on the F-15 when we sold some to them. Japanese pilots, same deal. Israel has sent pilots here for the F-16, as have a whole bunch of foreign air forces. Foreign air forces also come over here to train with us. Last time I was at Nellis AFB in 2005, there were German F-4s and Australian F-111 there to participate in Red Flag wargames.
For those who don't know, the Qatar F-15 deal was the impetus for the US Air Force to buy a bunch of new build F-15 called the F-15EX. Boeing upgraded the platform for the Qatar deal, and the Air Force decided to buy some themselves, to replace legacy F-15 models that were timing out on air frame life.
