      "The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.” Mandela Unfortunately Americans don't know bravery because they're always the most powerful and have the upper hand so there's no need to overcome any fear.

I hope if there are known F16 top gun pilots willing to go and help then this is something Ukraine should consider.

    a 21st Century Eagle Squadron! Have lots of Western trained pilots worldwide that would want to fly for Ukraine, I'm certain. It's long over due. Edit: Need outside experienced maintainers as well. Edit 2: Are they not more like a MLU+? Since at least Denmark has equipped them with more ECM and IR detection, by an upgraded pod?

      @ well I think the tactics are the same and in an ideal world an experienced pilot can learn faster but whilst he learns an F16 who flies his Mig ? Someone with less experience. The Mig pilots that have flown the last 3 years are the most combat experienced pilots on the planet.

      @jompy151 2 часа назад +2

      As mariawallstrom said from what i've seen reported the Mig's are a completely different beast to fly and the cockpit is layed out differently to western jets . This means due to muscle memory of the older pilots its easier to train fresh/new pilots , also the tactics and ways of acquiring targets taught to the older piolts is also very different .

    • @lightningleaf23
      @lightningleaf23 2 часа назад +1

    The current F16's are built and upgraded by Fokker in the Netherlands. The Dutch government has bought the F16 patent for the mass production for European countries with local production in the 80's. They have their own European developed upgrades. This is why US and European F16's are slightly different. They still have the same NATO weapon capabilities a similar frame and engines. Later US models are slightly redesigned with newly built models

They fly 12 ft off the hard pan. They can manuever over and around the edge rows. Yes the F-16 can be called in. Ukraine needs border patrol planes.
