Tensions between two neighboring countries in Southeast Asia are putting the F-16 Fighting Falcon into action.  

A diplomatic solution brokered by the United States between the two countries fell through, and fighting has broken out.  

F-16 Fighting Falcon fighter jets of the Royal Thai Air Force have been pounding targets in Cambodia after tensions between the two countries escalated into a small-scale conflict. 

According to a statement, the Royal Thai Air Force struck military targets in Cambodia along the border with Thailand. In light of the developments, the Cambodian military has mobilized its forces and heavy weapon systems, including artillery and rocket artillery systems. Thai F-16s
