KYIV. November 19. UNN. During a telethon, the spokesman for the Ukrainian Air Force Command, Yuriy Ihnat , assuredthat Ukraine's availability of modern multi-purpose aircraft could significantly affect the course of the war, UNN reports.
Aircraft will change the course of the war and change it very seriously. The question is that these planes should not be those whose tactical and technical characteristics will be much weaker than the Russian ones.
We need modern aircraft, we need aircraft that can gain air superiority and a number of other factors that a multi-role aircraft has. That is, the F-16 in a certain modification, which can strike ground targets, surface targets and air targets, plus protect the state inside from missiles and dronesYuriy Ihnat
Aviation systems such as multi-role aircraft can significantly influence the course of the war. It is with the help of, for example, F-16 that Ukraine will be able to drive back Russian aviation and provide air cover for ground troops. To recap. The United States has already begun training Ukrainian pilots to operate F-16 fighters.
