“I am writing to express the United States’ full support for both the transfer of F-16 fighter aircraft to Ukraine and for the training of Ukrainian pilots by qualified F-16 instructors […] It remains critical that Ukraine is able to defend itself against ongoing Russian aggression and violation of its sovereignty” said Blinken.

Will this solidify a Ukrainian victory?

U.S. officials have privately said that F-16 jets would have been of little help to Ukraine in its current counteroffensive and will not be a game changer when they eventually arrive given Russian air defense systems and contested skies over Ukraine

Or will Russian radar and missle systems tear them up?

    The only person who explained this to you was a propagandist, which thought you would happy to repeat Kremlin talking points.

    There is zero chance of Ukraine getting F35s - not because it implicates NATO, because NATO has already given its weapon systems generously.

    There’s no “implication”.

    It’s happened directly a result of Russia invading Ukraine.

    Russia winning guarantees dangerous nuclear proliferation.

    Russia losing to conventional weapons is the best outcome for everyone on rhe planet - except Putin himself.
