    3. What an irony country with 40 million people is begging for money allaround the world for entire year. Ukraine couldnt last even month without supplies from EU, it just keeps begging and begging and no one even looks after the money that goes there, they are obviously stealing money as they did for 30 years.

  2. Six months for the F-16 training is what I estimated too. But I’ve heard Ukrainian pilots, of which there aren’t many, started training on simulators many months ago already. This should shorten the training time significantly, I believe. Also, the earlier the training starts, the sooner Ukraine can field these jets, and the sooner the war ends, lowering the number of casualties on both sides.

    1. @User User It doesnt matter that you cant understand…by now everyone sees what a total fukwit you are….of course Ukraine is bombing russia with paper planes.. according to you of course! fuknut! In reality…Ukraine never lost a plane on the ground in the first week. They were not even in Ukraine…dikhead russian troll!

    2. @Pai M Idunno. They are unfortunate people born into a regime that brainwashed them into supporting atrocities in Ukraine. The human brain is a very fragile thing. Anybody could be in their place. Russia absolutely needs to be defeated, but Russians need to be reeducated, the same way Germans were after WW2, not killed.

    3. @Ricky Hunter Ukraine has enough pilots to man the rather few aircraft they inherited from the Soviet regime. They don’t have hundreds of pilots trained on fighter jets, to be able to replace crews with ease.

    5. @Neal White Two years, I’m suppose, is for completely green volunteers. I expect it to take significantly less for pilots already having gained battlefield experience on other jets.

  3. Thing is, people were saying the same thing about F16 (training taking too much time for it to be useful) already 6 months ago. If we had given those planes to Ukraine back then, UA would have completed the entire training by now.

    1. @Mark M I agree, nobody is going to send the F-35 ‘s or F22’s. F- 16 ? , Maybe.
      The Typhoon is a good aircraft yes. Don’t know the Gripens . Google here i come 😂

    2. @Mark M What makes the Gripen special?
      Gripen E has the powerful GE F414G engine, great range and the ability to carry an impressive payload with its ten hard-points. It also has a new AESA-radar, InfraRed Search and Track System (IRST), highly advanced electronic warfare and communication systems..
      Looks like a good choice

    3. It is time to scrape up every available SU-25 and MIG 29 left in Europe and beyond for use to help the brave people of Ukraine. Thousands were produced. It is time to think outside the box. Why the fear of provoking Putin’s Russia. He is already hell bent on destroying Ukraine and if successful, others in eastern Europe.

    4. @User User Yes. Another thing about the Gripen is it only needs 400 meters of runway to take off and 500 to land. That’s extremally short for a bird of its capability and the runway doesn’t have to be all that good. It might be possible to deploy Gripens pretty far forward but I’m not sure. It’s easy to work on and it’s easy to maintain, relatively easy anyway. For Ukraine it’s a good choice but I don’t think it’s the only choice or should be the only bird. The Typhoon is a beast and it has supper cruse capability, this greatly extends its area of control. It’s over there and very quickly it’s over here and its maneuver envelope is, well; something a lot more than impressive. The F-15e is a truck…I can’t believe I’m saying that but it’s the truth, the Strike Eagle can haul about 1.5 times more than the Gripen. And once you punch everything off the Eagle’s wings it’s OMG fast.

      BTW somebody needs to talk to Moldova. 😉

    5. @Mark M The Gripen sounds a very good option with tat short takeoff ,even roads could be used as runways just cut down and telephone poles etc so the wings have clearance . Maybe refueling and rearming could be made mobile so they could meet anywhere they can land .
      I have seen the Typhoons doing escort work with RAF flights going to the UAE so yes , they have good range on them and theyare very agile .
      The F-15 might be a bit of a truck but it does not have to get to close with what it can carry, fire off what it is carrying and get clear fast. Most of Ukrainian airspace is now more or lass ” safe ” so as long as there are no friendly fire incidents it could work . Someone suggested that the planes could go to Poland and or Romania for service but that would be looked on by Russia as a direct NATO involvement and thats a big no no.
      I think Moldova knows exactly where it stands and would help if at all possible but they have a very small army and Russia has troops in Transnistria and i have no doubts that if Moldova did get involved then Russia would start to use those troops there . Moldova has been helping with allowing equipment to pass through its territory after being delivered to an airport in southern Romania but it seems to have dried up, not sure why . Maybe the route has been made unusable . Blackhawk helicopters down in that area quite a lot maybe assisting with supplies in some way .
      Moldova has aprox 6.500 soldiers but i dont know about equipment levels , type . Probably older stuff . Russia has aprox 1,700 and probably better equipped . The good news is that Russia can not put more on the ground there , it is totally locked and Moldova is not letting them rotate even if there was a way to . The only route they have is from the Black sea and having to cross a par of Ukrainian airspace

    2. Courage is not the absence of fear. It’s not letting fear stop you. I support Ukraine and hope this viscous war ends soon. But everyone has fear in warfare. Bravery in the face of that fear .. that’s the definition of courage. People who act / think otherwise are dangerous, and likely to get themselves and their compatriots hurt .. or worse.

    3. What choice do they have? Where is their help? Everything they get is less and late, maybe too late. We’ve failed them. If Ukraine falls we don’t lift a finger for the rest of Europe. We let Russia have ALL the Soviet Block countries back. If they can have Ukraine, they can have the rest… why not? Chechnya, Georgia, Croatia…. Ukraine? Poland? Finland better be getting ready for that war again. What a plum East Germany must look right now, just ripe for the oligarchs (that are left) to pluck it. I left out Belarus but they kept their dictator. Ukraine ousted their Russian puppet. 20 years in Iraq and Afghanistan. Ukraine isn’t asking us to fight their fight, they are asking us to help them arm themselves so they can defend against this attack on their right to the freedom and the life they built a long time ago. Not helping Ukraine is a tactical error.

    1. I am an engineer. I develop software for various organizations of our country and abroad and do research on science. You can understand why I am saying this by reading my entire article. In the beginning I have my humble respect for you. Think, you hit a rock somewhere, what happened? Nothing was created but something was broken. When an engineer builds a device he builds up the whole device from the smallest chip of the device to the whole device with the perfect experiment and calculation. Even then, there is an error somewhere and the device gets damaged after a few months or years. If it is not possible to make a 100% perfect instrument even after so many calculations and experiments, then how did this perfect universe be created on its own. The functions of the various organs of the human body are so perfect and perfect that no human can ever discover such a device. These wonderful people and other creatures were created by their own ? According to all the Abrahamic religions (Islam, Judaism, Christianity) and Hinduism (Vedas) God is one, he has no image, no sculpture, nothing like him to see in the universe. According to the Islam, no vision can capture God. Now the question is, has God chosen any religion for us? The religion you practice may not be God’s chosen religion.

       Then how to find the right religion. I will tell you the easiest way. The Almighty Creator knows all things that are going on in our minds. He can see and hear every creature in the universe . The Creator is very holy. If in a pure state of your body and in a very simple heart (passionate and emotional) you ask him(God) for something, he does not make you return. If you ask him for the right religion, He will surely show you the right path. If you do not believe me, remember Allah when you are in danger and say, O my true Creator, save me from this danger. Thus, once, twice, five times, if you pray to the Creator, I am 100% sure that your prayers will be accepted and granted. But you have to make sure that God is one, and you must not pray to any of his idols. There is only one religion acceptable to the Creator. You will be greatly astonished if you hear the concept of god in Islam. Besides my profession I research on comparative religion. Islam is the only religion on this planet that can give you logical  answers to all of your questions regarding god. You may get angry while I am speaking about Islam. Please be patient and read the entire  article carefully. All that media shows about Islam is not always true. The holy book of Islam is the Quran revealed by god  where god challenged all the humanity collectively  to write a book somewhat like Quran. God enriched this book with the highest linguistic ornaments and literature. People(Muslim and non Muslim) are trying from 14 hundreds year back to write a chapter like Quran in Arabic but they shamefully failed. For these reason Muslim people is increasing more than five times  than Christianity. This book is rich in moral lesson and scientific fact Like 1. Big  bang 2. Universe is expanding 3. The volume of the universe is endless 4. Moon has no light of it’s own. 5. Sun is rotating. 6. Embryology 7. Male sperm is responsible for human sex. 6. Main part of the sperm fertilize woman’s egg. 8. The mountain hinder the movement of the earth surface. 9.Female bee is the leader of the hive. 10.  Water is the main element of life.11. There is a difference called barsaque between sweet water and salt water that’s why sea water doesn’t mix with river water. 12. Water cycle and so on that science proved in the previous centuries. You may test me by reading the book whether I am true or false.I want to remind you that this book was written 14 hundreds years ago and the historians and even the criticizers of Islam are certifying that every word of Quran is unchanged from 14 hundreds years ago. you may think I am advertising Islam but I am calling you to the actual god. If you don’t  believe me you can use the way I mentioned above to draw the attention of god. I have hundreds of people who prayed to different gods and idols to full fill their wishes but their prayer was not granted. When they prayed to the god of Islam they experienced different miracles and their wishes were fulfilled by Allah and they converted to Muslim. You may think they experienced miracles! These are stupid words.That’s why I ask you to pray to the actual god for several times in pure and emotional heart and wait for god’s response. God has created us to test who is the best of us in action.Jesus was a messenger of God ,not God. Jesus could not do anything without God. I will suggest you to study comparative religion and you will come to know the truth .May God guide you to the right path .I am requesting you to watch the following videos that will change your life and you will feel that you have reborn again. Please store these video links in your device and watch them whenever you can make some time. May peace be upon you. Thanks a lot.

  12. Outstanding courage. In this war the Ukraine soldier fights for home and people and those who fall can be said to have lived a beautiful and pure life while the invader will just rot.

    1. @Bobby Walker has nothing to do with nato expansion.. due to the fact theres many nato members on Russian borders already and ukraine didnt request nato membership until after russia invaded. And the fact russias actions have caused finland and sweden to request membership means they would have achieved the opposite.. This is for russian expansion. To take ukrainian land and resources. This is been something putin has been wanting to do for a long time now. The whole nato angle is something putin is using to gather support from russians.

  13. As a wannabe pilot who a number of years ago spent hours and hours *trying* to do combat support missions with the Mi-8 in DCS World, I must say these guys are some effin’ talented and brave people. Not that the simulations in DCS are perfect to reality, but from my admittedly limited experience what these guys are doing is the equivalent to driving a 2 ton pickup truck like a Mazda Cup Car. That said the Mi-8 is a brilliant machine though.

  14. Ukrainians in this horrible war are the most impressive people I ever had the chance to witness. Women and children who had to flee the country are already returning to support their family and country. The people staying there from the beginning are incredible brave and strong willed and still keep their humanity side alive . So different from the Russians fighting in Ukraine and those staying at home hiding behind “What can I do” and “I am apolitical”. SLAVA UKRAINI! And glory to their heroes!

All it takes is one hidden soldier on the ground with some AA and they could be shot down so course flying these sorties is courage.

    1. What a dumb question. “Are you afraid?’ duh. Of course any human would be afraid in that circumstance. And he was forced to then answer in a way to overlook that fear, by denying it. Most of those pilots probably just don’t want to think about their fear, in order to do their jobs,, which they do regardless. This reporter only forced that pilot to have to revive his fear and have to go through the process again of denying it, in order to go back up
