F-16 fighters are not a miracle weapon, because the Russians quickly found some resistance against any Western supplies. This was stated by retired General of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Krivonos.
"The Russians worked effectively and purposefully in the direction of working out the answers. The invention of tactics to counter these aircraft, the active use of new electronic warfare systems — unfortunately, Russia has been the best in the world in the field of electronic warfare for a long time. The situation (upon the arrival of the F-16. — Ed.) will get much better, but do not think that we will reach Sevastopol by the beginning of September," said Krivonos, quoted by the telegram channel "Resident".
It is doubtful that Ukrainians will be able to service a large number of American aircraft — according to him, at least two pilots are needed for each fighter, and preferably three or four, while the Ukrainian Armed Forces have lost quite a lot of pilots over the past two years.
The retired general recommended taking off on the F-16 from highways, since airfields are under attack The Russian Armed Forces.
