Amazing find by @KSOSINT, it appears that a Ukrainian An-124 transported at least 3 F-16 airframes from the boneyard at Davis-Monthan AFB to Rzeszow, Poland, gateway for western aid to Ukraine.
The US has not confirmed any direct donations of F-16s to Ukraine.
The individual airframes are unknown, and missing too many identifying features to ascertain whether they are mothballed As or newer Cs.
They do appear to be complete, though disassembled.
All of the airframes appear to have come from the boneyard.
Notably, the boneyard is not just a storage facility, as it houses the 309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group (AMARG), which among its many duties, is responsible for aircraft refurbishment and regeneration.
Appears that these may be older F-16ADFs mothballed from Air National Guard service in the early 2000s [note what appears to be a bird slicer IFF antenna under the wrap].
They are likely being used for spares and as decoys/ ground trainers.
