This war is going to go on until at at least till Putin dies won’t it?
Russians really fucked themselves on this one. But it looks more and more like they are just willing to kill themselves and Ukraine to save face. It looks like the only hope for Ukraine is to attrition the Russian military while sanctions are ongoing that the Russians get so pissed off at their shitty lives that they do something. But the Russians aren’t famous for doing anything about their shitty lives so I doubt that’s going to happen soon.
Hopefully Ukraine can destroy enough AA to use these planes to get effect next year.
My question is who’s going to remove those 600 million landmines or so that Russia is planted in Ukraine.
Because every f16 sent to Ukraine gets backfilled by an f35?
Are we going to be sending them pilots as well or do they just expect them to start the long training process to learn how to fly them and hope the pointless (but Russia’s fault) war lasts long enough to use them?
Well it is a shitposting sub so I think you get a pass on not doing the homework
The pilots will be Ukrainian from what I understand. But the planes are owned by the respective countries. The only reason for the sensationalist headline, beside clickbait, is because the F-16 is an American made fighter jet.
The fact the f16 is US made means a country cannot give it to another country without the US approval. It is the case for all armaments. The producing country must allow the transfer.
Don’t worry, you got plenty of time to calm down. The pilot training hasn’t even started yet.
Rookie move. Germany’s about to get to new Bundesländer
