In 1994 Portugal bought the following F16's:

17 Lockeed-Martin F-16A/OCU Fighting Falcon (still active)
3 Lockeed-Martin F-16B/OCU Fighting Falcon (still active)

In 2003:

21 Lockeed-Martin F-16A/MLU Fighting Falcon
4 Lockeed-Martin F-16B/MLU Fighting Falcon

The portuguese air-force also has 50 Alpha Jet's, among others.

Portugal needs to defend/control its maritime territory, which is about 4 times the actual size of the country, or something like that. I presume the military believes the only way of doing it is by air.

to note also that the Portuguese Airforce is present in Afghanistan, for instance
