Romania has had them since 2016, and they only retired their old-as-**** mig-21s last year - for contractual purposes because NATO countries want money. There is still a question whether the F-16s are fully integrated with the rest of the Romanian military.
The notion that Ukraine can make use of F-16s is extremely unlikely. Even if they are flown by seasoned American pilots, the F-16s are going to be an asterisk in the strength of the Ukrainian "military." They might on occasion harry some Russian troops, but the likelihood that they will ever be decisive in an important battle is slim.
And I say this as a person with a full military scholarship at Google University.
