F-16 Will Soon INVADE Russia and BOMB It!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- Ukraine war is underway as F-16 fighter jets head to Ukraine. 🛩️🇺🇦 President Zelenskyy has long called for these jets, believing they will significantly boost Ukraine’s defenses. "Now is the time to provide all the weapons necessary for defense"
This marks a turning point. F-16s will soon fly over Russia, targeting strategic positions that have fueled attacks on Ukraine. But this also risks escalating the conflict, potentially drawing NATO into the fray. 🌍

Should’ve sent A-10’s too. Considering we’ve been trying to scrap them for 20 years.
They are not scraping the A-10
They're talking about this.
They're tech ready now. Even have lasers to blind the planes and missiles.
Good point! That would be an exellent move!
The West needs to stop pussyfooting around. Escalation is inevitable anyway.
I was saying this in 2022, just give Ukraine everything needed to end this as quickly as possible and make other countries think twice before they pull a putin.
They won't even leave the runway
Neeeeee
And this is another reason why we need Trump. Zelensky can work with him and he knows that. 💯🇺🇸
@intelasset "And what happens if Russia collapses?" Mission accomplished.
Russia is too stubborn to stop the war. They need to feel how its like to be on the other end.
It may just happen that you will feel it too...
Oh yes Ukraine needs whatever you may supply,the only goal is to stop the aggressor
@@posebej1 in your wildest dreams.
That's EXACTLY RIGHT! But pay attention to Belarus or as Governor Walz has said "Mind your own dam business!"
Fear of escalation is no way to deal with an aggressive regime like Russia. It gives the impression of fear and Putin always sees this as weakness.

because the donating countries don't want to get dragged into a world war, and Ukraine wasn't a part of NATO i'm guessing
US Fear of escalation is one of most influential reason which allowed this war to happen in first place.
Unfortunately its Putin's cowardice that is to blame. He failed to foresee that despite NATO and the USA's aggression against Libya, Serbia, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan he failed to launch first strike against the West.
Finish off the West's aggression on a global scale for centuries.
European nations supply Ukraine with old F16s and then buy new F35s from US. Very good business for the US even if not all are spending two percent of GDP! Time that this is rammed home to US electorate.
The USA still maintains a force of over 200 F-16s. This old jet (in current iterations) still has strengths and utility. Not stealth, but still very useful.

F-16's are versatile. From what I've studied and learned about the F-16 over the years (specifically the Block 50 version that Ukraine is getting), I believe the biggest boon that Ukraine will get from them is its incredible wild weasel capabilities. Before, Ukrainian pilots were getting stand-offed by Russian jets launching long range air-air missiles, because they were flying old MIG-29s that have neither the maneuverability, nor the early warning capabilities needed to effectively notch and evade russian missiles.
That changes with the F-16. They have radars capable of detecting Russian fighters at longer distances, RWR systems capable of detecting missile launches far earlier, and avionics systems including EW suites that are capable of making missiles stray off course. In addition, there are few planes that can change direction and speed as quickly and erratically as the F-16. An F-16 can manuever in relation to a missile and find great success in notching or causing the missile to bleed its energy to the point where it's no longer a threat.
This, in conjunction with the upgraded armaments, like the ARAAM C-8 that Ukraine is getting with the F-16s, will allow Ukrainian pilots to push against Russian fighters with much less fear and actually force Russian jets back to avoid getting within missile range themselves.
This will open up more area for Ukraine to work with on the ground as well.
Looking forward to how it goes.
They are not getting Block 50s but Block 15 MLU aircraft. These jets are a range of Block 1 to Block 15 airframes upgraded to a common standard. Many of the systems are Block 50 standard, but not the engines and radar. I don't think these jets have the HTS pod for the Wild Weasle role, but could be wrong about that.
@@soulsphere9242 every one of tbe F-16s they got from NATO allies have gone through the modernization program that was designed to gap close between block 30 and Block 70s that are being made now. So every F-16 they are being given is pretty much equivalent to an American Block 50, as that was the goal of the program.
And they do have the Sniper pods
Ohh so you are on a Russian MIG29 studying ? Great then you know it all... 😅🤣😂
@@ObiWanShinobi917 No, that is not correct. None of these donor countries ever operated Block 30s to begin with, they were all Block 1 through to Block 15 OCU when delivered and later went through multiple stages of the MLU program. These old Euro F-16s are Block 15 MLU (Mid-Life Update) standard. They have had their avionics and cockpit, etc updated to Block 50 standard and generally kept current with modernisation, but they still have the F100-PW-200 or 220 engines and the APG-66 radar.
Block 25 onward have the APG-68. Block 70 has the APG-83 which is an AESA radar. Some older blocks have had the APG-83 retrofitted, but these definitely have not.
I never said they didn't have Sniper pods, I said they don't carry the HTS pod (ASQ-213 HARM Targeting System). Only late Block 50s had that capability integrated. It may later have been integrated on earlier blocks as part of an upgrade, but I cannot confirm.
They are still extremely capable aircraft, but they are not cutting-edge F-16s by modern standards.
Watch actual fighter pilot experts in RUclips. The F16s will be useless. They won’t do much to change the war. People had the same reaction with the Abrams tanks. And they did nothing.
From America with love

Enough talk, promises, projections! Get the F-16s off the ground!
They are compressing 18 months of training (the bare minimum) into 8 months. That risks failure. For every pilot, there are 40 support crew (mechanics, weapon specialists). Their training is crucial too. We don't want F 16s falling out of the sky, or detonating on the runway. This stuff takes time people!
Won't be hit on base ?

It means that with the f-16 that Ukraine can defend itself more and give orcs something to think abount. You said what the aircraft can do. And I think that's what going to happen. Good show 👽👍. Slava Ukrani 🇺🇦💕✊
Theorise all you want. As long as they are on the ground they have no value. You mentioning they will fly soon is said too often. It's time to fly then we'll see what they can do
They will simply burn like the ATACMS, ABRAMS etc. Tge West is just feeding young Ukrainians to the meat grinder.
I don't think the beginning of F-16 combat operations will be publicly announced. They might have already begun, with the results to become evident in the statistics of attrition.
We already know exhaustively the F-16 capabilities - the jet is 50 years old. Combat kill history is 76 to 1. Each weapon system is also "tried and true". The only question is training (both pilot and support crews). it has, from necessity, been rushed and reduced. The longer they train, this factor reduces.
If they fly,, it will be a very short flight.. 👍
@@henrybutchy3242 Ukraine stopped using Abrams...... WHY? the same will be with F-16

Quantity of equipment isn't the only thing that determines the outcome. Ukraine has better planning and training, which is a force multiplier and could very well make up the gap. They've already proven it on the ground.
Isn't this just repeating the same fallacy as when the media hyped up Western tanks like the Leopard 2 and Abrams?
We heard so much hype about the superiority of Western tanks yet they did not perform as well as originally estimated.

They did perform as well as originally estimated (unless you're referring to estimates by the media groups themselves). The problem was simply the lack of numbers with which they could achieve anything meaningful, and the fact that tanks of all sorts are barely relevant in this war compared to artillery.
@@dumdumbinks274 or drones for that matter
Well for the number of tanks they received they have adapted to the new kid on the block - Drones quite well. After the learning curve of tactics we're achieved, they were well ready to receive the Bradley's, which by all accounts are performing most excellent.
Considering the fact hat the USSR has lost thousands of tanks to include the T-90 western tanks have done very well. The British sent about 5 challenger 2 and only lost one. US sent 30 Abrams and only lost 3 with about 5 more disabled. The leopard two's have had a lesser degree of success due to the large number of leopard 1's sent which are obsolete. However, even the L2 A6's have had some issues. None of these tanks are state of the art latest western block modified. But the one thing in common in all these tanks is the crews have survived and all the disabled tanks that were recovered are repaired. Those tanks were impacted by Russian air superiority and glide bombs plus the modified air to ground munitions on helicopters. NATO and the US failed to provide Ukraine with western aircraft so Ukraine was not able to use western doctrine and use the tanks properly. Even now outdated version F-16 starting to arrive and yet the US which has thousands of them ( all being phased out) hasn't sent not one plane. We should have pledged 100 planes to send a statement to Putin to get out! Ukraine should have at least one ELITE squadron of F-16 with latest block and armed with latest AMRAAM-ER. Just one ghost squadron specializing in Air Dominance like the Red Baron's squadron. Their job to seek and destroy Russian aircraft only. Russian pilot's would be afraid to fly after that...Fox 3!
The cowardly behaviour of weak western leadership (unwilling to deter) is leading the world into hard times
At first the himars were said to finish the russians, then the abram tanks were said to be winning the counteroffensive, after that we were told the ATACMS were finishing off the the last of the Russians and now F16 what...😂
who even said the Himars were finishing the Russians?? and yes the abrams tanks helped a great deal in finishing, but didn't "finish" them...the F16s will help a LOT, but not finish....get real bro
@@EveGantianyou need to read more widely, even in the Western Press
The Pentagon have said the F-16s will make no difference to the outcome.
The problem is that you're taking independent media groups who create drama for profit seriously. They'll say whatever gets them attention, because they get their profit through ad revenue. which is based on how many views a video or article has.
@@EveGantianThe Abrams are a lot of failures as a tank. They didn't achieve anything meaningful since they entered service but more than 7 has been destroyed or captured by Russia while Abram still has no kill confirm.
They have already stated that F-16’s will be used strictly defensively over Ukrainian territory. This report is already out of date. Currently the are only six trained pilots.
Doubtful at this time. Ukraine MoD has already gone on record that F-16s will be operating inside Ukraine in a defensive role, shooting down missiles and drones. It doesn’t sound like they will tackle ground attack and A2A combat roles at this time, except when forced.
Yeah his claims are wild
Agreed. See my comment and I’m saying exactly the same. For now at least. Middles and gliding bombs will be released from Ukrainian secured airspace.
Well even with training the Ukranian pilots are still relatively new at using the F-16s it takes time to become pros using them, so better they stay close to home, they can get a new plane fairly easy, not a new pilot. And Russia still has a lot of Anti-air defense inside Russia, so they'd only go for very select targets, given the risk is so high.
Yeah, video doesn't strike me as well thought out based on what we already know, more like a wet dream. They couldn't train existing pilots properly (even Abrams crews was a challenge). New pilots was trained fine, as was their close supporting functions. So they'll be able to fly the planes fines. But they cannot employ western/NATO tactics, as the higher ups cannot be trained for this; near impossible to unlearn everything you believe in - ask a Trump supporter. So they're not ending up NATO qualified pilots, but Ukrainian pilots able to fly F-16s the Ukrainian way of thought. Same happened to Abrams crew; can use the tank just fine, but limited to using it the same way they would use ruskie equipment rather than the "NATO way".
Also, the risk of going deep into enemy territory is just too high considering the cost. F-16s are not *immune* to MANNPADS like Igla or Strela or whatever else they have. What they *can* do is a variety of standoff missions that was previously unavailable to them, as the F-16s are compatible with so much more armaments'. Wouldn't mind seeing that bridge finally come down for good.
Fighter jets are not useful in fighing incoming missiles and drones at all. Their most likely role at first will be dropping JDAMs, take out ground radars and anti-drone ECM with HARM and finally push back the SU-34 planes currently dropping FAB glidebombs with impunity at the frontlines. All medium-range stuff, allowing the planes to stay out orange of most of Russian counters.

Did you ever think a day would come when Ukraine would be flying American made aircraft, gifted by NATO Europe.. so they could fly over Russia?
It's like a Cold War story book.
The versions they are getting are old models (with mid-life upgrades), with nothing like the capabilities of the latest Block 70/72 models. The main advantage these planes will give Ukraine will be as missile trucks, giving them the ability to carry NATO-standard weapons and full access to those weapons' capabilities. If they were to try and use them in an air superiority mode, against Russian SU-35 with AESA radars, AWACS and long-range R-77 and R-37(M) missiles they'd be toast...the Russian planes could engage them before the aging radars on Ukraine's F-16s even warned them of a threat...
Not correct.
@@mike_oe He is correct. The F-16 is not very effective in BVR combat, and can't even use the AIM-120 to it's maximum effective range due to a fairly weak radar. Though the Russians do not have AESA radars either, their fighters have much more powerful radars owing to the larger nose cones.
Russian SU 35 , R77 , R37 old shit like everything else they own 😂 when NATO saw their newest tanks , they thought it was borrowed from some broken down museum in Moscow 😂😂
@Shaun-p4g So do Russian fighters.
It’s only logical that Russia would threaten to go after any country that allows an F-16 to take off, or land, in that country. we
We insisted “if Russia is using the West’s reluctance to let Ukraine use Western weapons within Russian borders; “ it’s the precise logic that put F-16s into Ukraine finally, and to now allow those jets and other weapons to be used within Russia.
I worked in a maintenance unit for F16s. Its no easy task to keep enough trained personnel to keep those things in the air. Ukraine may loosen the guidelines a bit on what is mission ready but I dont see them getting ground crews going without senior personnel with intimate knowledge of the aircraft. There were however contractors who were capable and if Ukraine has contracted much of it out things may be possible. Even while phasing out F-16s for F-35s getting parts is expensive and will be difficult if they are not being manufactured at the scale required. I just cant believe we would give up so much weapons tech when it has cost the US tax payers trillions to stay a generation ahead of adversaries. I doubt their generational counterparts are actually the same generation.
F-16 is a great plane , but the deciding factor is pilot training .
I am fairly sure that Ukraine has a solid plan for how to best use F16's given the current conditions
most likely to launch missiles.
Ukraine doesn't have any experience in using them, that's why they need advice and technical support from NATO.
By getting targeted as soon as they are airborne? Sounds about right.

I'm a sulvilian aircraft mechanic,they can train me and send me over there to work on there planes
I dont know why, but i really love f-16 design
Its a beautiful aircraft
@@rickmyrick5470 yeah
Israel is glad they have F-35s.
not really relevant to the seriousness of the chat, but God yea, they are gorgeous
I wish they could get Swedish Grippens. They seem less highly strung: able to operate from roads and park in the woods.
Ukraines lost more soldiers than America lost in all of ww2. End the war.
Stupid.
Russia invaded and carries out bomb and missle strikes daily on Ukraine. Yet they are told what they can and can't attack.
BS. Take the fight to them like you're doing Ukraine.
Don't show weakness to Russia , take it to them.
Keep giving Ukraine what they need , or the world will end up in this fight.
2 years of game changers already
that's right, and therefore russia is unable to project power more then about 100km beyond their own border. Russias military power is pathetic.
Day 800/3 of the Special Military Operation
@@SlosII
russia has literally expanded their borders for 2 years...it's the largest country on earth and it's literally getting bigger
@@hamadkennedy6295 It's pathetic. Germany defeated France in two months.
@@hamadkennedy6295russia has literally been standing there with their pants down for two and a half years. Their mighty military not able to push further from the moment the west started to give Ukraine about 3% of their actual capability.
Denmark donated all our artillery systems to Ukraine, before we had bought new equipment for ourselves, then we donated around 40 Leogpard tanks, and they also got all our old F-16s for free... And now they also get 300 Danish billions in war support - That's enough money to build a bridge connection from Denmark to Norway or from Denmark to England for that money, and there would still be money left... Just try and think how much money that would be in total will be donated to Ukraine. Of course we have to support them, but if we don't think about it in time then the World Bank will have to shut down...
20 trained pilots by the end of the year....
So it is ok for pootin to get arms and personal from N Korea and Chechnya but it is an escalation if Ukraine gets help from it's friends.
Every video you put up with the map of NATO is incorrect. Macedonia has been part of NATO since the 19th of March in 2020. Yet you never highlight Macedonia as part of NATO. UPDATE YOUR NATO MAP TO INCLUDE MACEDONIA!!!
Lmao
NO
Macedonia is bulgaria rightful land!
that's a made-up name, Macedonia is a Greek region for over 2k years Skopje is the name
@@vidinius12 no it is a bulgaria rightful land since the beginning you are fill with greece bullcrap propanganda!
The narrator suggests that the modern Russian Air Force is well maintained and superior to the Ukraine Air Force. With little action seen by the Russians since they left the easy war they lost in Afghanistan I don’t believe that their modern aircraft will be ready for action much like their Tank Cavalry weren’t and are proving a bigger problem than anything on the ground in the midst of battle … too many Vodkas make military leaders lie about how well they have done their job.
Personally I think Russia could use a total change of leadership and a better Communism without oligarchies and with true Cameraderie among their peoples … If only All the Russians adopted the true principles it could be a great country once again !
MADE IN USA ALWAYS POWERFUL
I doubt the F16s will fly over Russia. Air defenses are too good, and the effort to neutralize them is a big, multilayered effort that Ukraine does not have the resources to do. The F16s will be used over Ukranian territory.
The pilots wont be trained enough to make a dif. Just expensive cannon foder
No reason to think that. Give them some credit.
Good for the MIC.
@@SurplusMen F-16s are decades old. Get a clue.
@@donaldclifford5763it's not in their hands. Even if they are retired experienced pilots but the guys with one years training? How long have Romania been training to take on F-16s?
@@JLSMaytham We don't know. No reason to doubt the pilots are and will continue to be trained, like any air force,
Another piece of Cold War hardware held up as a wunderwaffe for Ukraine just like the Leopard tanks.
i like a wunderwaffe
Putin: Russia can deal with F-16’s
Putin: Threatens NATO and Nuclear War
World: 😑
Putin: We can deal with F-16’s
Putin will Prly use nukes as AA missiles.
See how they like it."Game on" . I see the Russian people as equal. What the hell is wrong with the KGB Government. Dementia
Don’t ignore the ability of Ukraine to hire pilots and ground crew for the f16. Lot of those out there. Lots not American.
not likely
F = fighter, B = bomber. The F16 is an amazing fighter jet, not a bomber. Either way, I don't know why we are waiting to stop them, they've already said that they won't stop with Ukraine.
Not to diss F-16s, but why not send over the A-10 Warthog as well?
Once F-16s gain air superiority, the A-10s can easily devour whole buffets of Russian ground forces.
It looks like their there already.
Several reasons
The A10 is only flown by the US and they still have limitations on weaponry being used in Russia
The A10 is ancient, and while they have served well, they are slow and have a large radar signal which would make them easier targets, especially from more agile or modern aircraft
Their mission is different and requires establishing air superiority before sending the A10s. Not too mention the training for the A10 would be completely foreign to the Ukrainian pilots and would take years to get an effective A10 squadron flying.
Effectively, they aren't the right aircraft for the mission.
The US uses the A10 to devastating effect because they can (and do) field squadrons of F15s, F16s and F22s which establish air superiority which allows the A10 to operate in close air support missions with the threat from enemy aircraft picking them off.
Without air superiority the A10 is a pretty big target.
And no country can have air superior over Russia
@Percival5 no Country*
*except the United States Airforce, United States Navy, China, France, Germany, Sweden, The United Kingdom, Japan, Korea, and any NATO country
I dint think f-16 would survive long inside Russian airspace
This will age badly. Watch this space.
The question is where will these f-16 be stationed, re-fuled and serviced as Ukraine does not the necessary infrastructure to do so....
The next game changer - women
SLAVA UKRAINI HEROYAM SLAVA 🔱🇧🇧🇵🇷🇺🇲🙏🏼
Ukraine were given Javelin, then, Himars, then Leopard tanks, then Storm Shadows long range missiles, then Abrams tanks....and every time we were told that "this will be a game changer." And now 50 years old upgraded F-16. Is there anyone who got an experience from the past two years. If yes......what experience did you make!!?? If there are still anyone who believe in the "magic" F-16`s.........then it is time to stop smoking!!🤣🤣🤣
Until the US allows the use of current anti aircraft technology, thousands will continue to die in infantry assaults and bombings. The US war machine is happy to sell their out dated weapons to Ukraine while selling it's new technology to the US military. It is all about the freedom.
@Shaun-p4g But they took land equivalent to French and other small country combined and still taking 10 to 20 km square per day😀
The F-16 Fighting Falcon is a timeless classic, and has been in service since 1978. It will always be my favorite fighter jet.

Even as your cheap energy is taken away, your factories are all bribed to go to the US and your standard of living plummets?
We in Europe haven't begun to pay the price of this escapade which was meant to get Russian natural resources cheap (but not for Europe).
France can't help fill the gap as they've lost the benefit of the natural resources they were stealing from the Sahel
Tough times all around.
Oh, and the US hope to contain a nuclear exchange to Europe. Personally I hope Lavrov honours his promise, which is likely.
Ukraine needs the A10 warthog
Give Ukraine 🇺🇦 all they need.
Its like tying the other hand of Ukraine ,say its allowed only to fight with one hand.
17:46 LOL. Russia is no threat to Europe. Heck, the only reason Ukraine is having trouble is because the rest of Europe is mostly watching.
why are their borders expanding into europe, then? russia is bigger in 2024 than it was in 2022
care to explain? letting russia take land because...?
Thank you. It's hard to find people like you who realize this. If Russia can't take Ukraine at this point, then it will never take Europe.
Too many fools don't realize this.
Yes, Putin is a massive threat to Europe, and the rest of the worlds democracy, stop him now, or bear the consequences!
Yes, you can't have it both ways, can you.
The collective population of our beautiful planet will always win against a dictator...we are human...after all.....x
In fact Collective insanity threatens human civilization
The Gripen would be the much better choice.
Meh
In a perfect world, yes probably, but there are very few Gripens available and no way of ramping up production any time soon, so that's pie in the sky. F-16s are plentiful, with several airforces having older airframes available for donation.
f16 is a proven concept that works in war. Also the f16 is better than prolly everything that Russia can use in the air. Especially now that Ukraine is getting more western weapons and can use it with the western intelligence. Believe me if Ukraine had western weapons from start, instead of soviet , this war would had been totally different. Russia without the nukes ain't that scary , corruption mainly is the cause of the bad shit in Russia or stuff not working :P
Why exactly. All 4th gen are completely toast. Also gripens are very expensive. Takes 1 missile to take out what ever today's cost is of the gripen. If they serious about bombing russia then they should use there highly stealthy f35. Otherwise just about everything In the western inventory is dead to ground attacks.
I'm hoping they secretly added some of the new AI software that can out-maneuver human pilots.
May Ukraine quickly accumulate the greatest number of victories possible as they launch their Special Military Operation into Russia using their F16s.
I don't,t believe F16 could fly beyond it,s Ukraine,s own front line.All previouse top western weapons faild to make any deference on the ground.
dont wanna sound negative....but under 20 used F/16s really wont make much difference but be a MASSIVE ground target.
This is an actual war, NOT Call Of Duty. its a BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIG AO. just sayin
Wake up NewMexico :) There are 4 times that number of planes on their way to Ukraine already. And they are fully serviced and upgraded.
it's way more numbers than that
