Ukraine's fighter pilots fly advanced F-16s for war with Russia

- Опубликовано: 22 фев 2024
- Ukraine could receive its first F-16 combat aircraft in the summer if the current timeline for pilot and support training continues apace, Denmark’s defense minister has said.
“It is difficult to set a fixed timetable for the donation of F-16 fighter jets, because there are several conditions that must be met in order for Ukraine to use the donated aircraft,” defense minister Troels Lund Poulsen said. Poulsen added that he expected a handover some time in summer.
In addition to pilot training, he said the proper logistics and infrastructure would need to be in place in Ukraine before delivery.
Exclusive footage shared with Storyful by United24 Media, which is associated with President Volodymyr Zelensky’s office, showed Ukrainian pilots training in Denmark in February.
Denmark has been training Ukrainian fighter pilots who first underwent basic training in the United Kingdom.

Its ironic that the Danish Air Force rep's name is literally JDAM.
Service and maintenance plans (incl.training)? Parts, supplies?
Service and maintenance plans ahead of it's training. Some Pilots in Hawaii been training for over 14 months. CNN video shows Ukraine pilots last year fyling. My cousin does the trainers in Hawaii. Keep in mind F-16 has seen combat. That's why many countries love the F-16.

Waste of money, but someone got rich from them.

F 16 advanced..lol..
Way more advanced than that soviet garbage. Like he said its like comparing an old Nokia to an IPhone. lmao
@@GCSloan95the difference the F16 like most us hardwarw has never been tried in real combat with an enemy who can fight back.
The us idea of war if spoonbills to bits someone who can’t fight back.
Look at Vietnam as an example of when they fight someone who has a remote chance.
At least it’s better than F35
Let me guess a game changer 😂
So are the SCALP, HIMARS and ATACMS
F16 bring reinforcment to ukraine and give more habilities than their soviet junks
the problem is where they gona take up to the sky?unlees they got boss undergreound bases
Its near finaly
Slava Ukraina
Before you fly write your will
Another failed game changing weapon that will make zero difference to the outcome of this.
Another Kremlin bot making Russia look like the clown of the world. 🤡

@@louger-tp5pl🤡
Not true. Beside stereotype frases like Game Changer the fact is that Ukr has been holding the russian greedy bear for more than 2 years now; they are the main reason but also the weapons supplied to them, so yes a Game Changer is clearly happening, the russian game has been spoiled so far.
It became known that the F-16 fighters, which had been assembled throughout Europe for so long for the Ukrainian Armed Forces, were destroyed even before their first combat flight.
May God protect all the Ukrainian military forces and Allies in the fight for freedom and independence.May God Bless all of them 🙏🙏🙏
👍
Yes and even more; at the end they're fighting for all of us
1:26 bros nametag literally says JDAM lol
😂😂 Byytchhh what?? 🤣🤣 if ya'll coulda heard the scream i "skrumpt" when this man compared the soviet jets to an old Nokia phone. I hollered. 😅
Wow. Their English is very good. Pilots tend to be pretty educated.
why the mask LOL, cov?
You´d think all you covid deniers would know that there´s a world that has nothing to do with covid. It´s to not show his face to his enemies. He´s at war.
1970s NAT0 Aircraft vs S400s and SU35s. Make fun of Russian aviation all you want until these old F16s enter Russian Air Space.
Oh you failed. F16 only fly in ukrainian air space. But the whole legal air space. Also donetsk and krim. They dont fly 😅to russia
It wants you to fly it more aggressively
They've been training for a year they are ready. The F-16 maintenance infrastructure is in place, trained tech's ready, they will begin next month
Did you ask the Russians for permission?
Advanced ? The SU27 will smoke it
Yes
@@Shan-sg7mm Not really. Your beloved Putin time is coming.
The Ukrainian are already flying su-27’s. Lol
It’s Ben 2 years and Russia doesn’t even own the skies against Ukraine with under a 100 aging aircraft. But I’m guessing you think they can still beat thousands of American aircraft?
Is that what I said ? Read the comment again you clown.
Su27 is a superior aircraft to the f16. F16 will not out perform Russian aircraft if the Ukraines SUs couldn’t
Accurate. 🙏 prayers 🙏.
"advanced F-16s" - these are early version F-16A which Denmark/Netherlands are replacing with modern F-35s.
No, they are the lastest update you can get and wastly superior to anything Russia can fly
Hope they don't strike their own cities
F-16 employed by Ukraine will show Russians what gaps do they have and where are NATO weaknesses. If it would use the AMRAAM missile that would show the Russians its true capabilities. Even if it would be old model. Also it would allow the Americans to asses F-16 capabilities in context of Russian threat. They might prolong the war, but in these insignificant numbers for Russia this would be just another inconvenience like HIMARS. Not a game changing development.
Russia has lost 425,000 troops. Sure don't care about your people. Of course your brave sitting on your butt not on front line.
Russia will destroy the F-16 before they can take off even in Poland.
GOD PROTECT THEM AND KEEP THEM SAFE PEACE AND VICTORY AND THANKYOU 🛡🛡🛡⚔⚔⚔💙💛
Um teste p os s400
Why show his face, for goodness sake? It's a security risk for a high military asset like fighter pilots.
Hey Times, wrong side of history much?
Who is the enemy for real, ask Yourself & deal with it for real because You know its You.
Nato got away many evil things in the past, i hope this one will not be like the ones in the past..
Tough to see a Fighter plane as a game changer.
This is becoming an artillery slog so Ukraine might want to focus on that and leverage their Patriot Missile system capabilities for the anti-air game.
NATO pilots acting as F16 Ukraine pilot. 😂😂
F-16s demand longer runways, isnt as agile as Mig-29...it could turn to fiasko? There is not safe to fly with any plane in ukr-rus area because of dense and alert air-defence
Rest in peace (in advance)
🤞🤞🤞
LOL - "advanced"!!!!! . There are no cars in the US that old as these cans.
Serbia shot F16’s in 1999 in kosovo , Serbia 🇷🇸
They really think 💭 2024 advanced Russia 🇷🇺 #2 but turning slowly but surely into #1 in the world is going to make a difference ? It’s 10 jets
expect losses. it's combat
The American F-22 Raptor and the F-35 Joint strike fighter are true 5th generation stealth aircraft, without a doubt the best in the world, American F-15 Eagles for context has never Ben shot down in combat yet, and I’d have to double check the numbers but I believe they have shot down over a 150 to zero, and in training F-22s take on 6,7 F-15’s, F-16’s, etc by themselves and most of the time win in war games: no one really thinks Russia aircraft are the best, Russia doesn’t even have full air supremacy in Ukraine in 2 years
NATO 1 - 0 Serbia
Thank you both Denmark and Ukraine! Your strength and valor is greatly appreciated🇺🇦🇩🇰 Thank you from Colorado, USA
The conflict is already over.
Last desperate move by NATO - but suicidal for many countries. F-16's design is such that it might have difficulties operating from Ukrainian runways. This has sparked speculation that they might fly from Poland, Romania, or the Baltic States instead. Russia has issued a warning, saying such a deployment would be an escalation of the conflict.
Basically, NATO is going to attack Russia from Poland and Romania using their F16s. If Russia doesn't attack Polish and Romanian airfields, they are insane. As the F16s can be carrying nuclear weapons.
Poland will not venture into that adventure because then Poland can be easily attacked by Russia from Kaliningrad.
Ukraine will take off from their farm lands. Stop the delusion.
Non sensical post. Every bit of it.
The Russians know that the West doesn't want to be nuked back, so no - they're not worrying about nuclear weapons.
The usual Russian fear monger propaganda. Booooring
Your saying Poland is scard of Russia
'Advance F16' you mean standard F16..
Comment section is filled with trash as usual. Just goes to show how insanely desperate Russia has become.
And how long will that take .. tis is de most boring war in history 😋
Nokia was an easier phone to use than iPhone. Any pilot will tell you that Mig and Su are better planes. Literally this guy just said American cars are better than JDM. I think he spoke for the camera not from his heart.
As a keyboard warrior and armchair expert in modern warfare and geopolitics, I'd just like to add my idiotic comment to all the others.
демонстративно учим 6 украинских пилотов, поставляем 6 F-16, отправляем на задание настоящих пилотов... и сколько бы не сбили, демонстрируем тех же пилотов. Профит.
A lot of merc pilots that are not ukrainians. F16 is not another wonder weapon. They will not last especially if they encounter an SU-35.
Dios bendiga a Ucrania
Take the plane and fly to the Bahamas.
How long are you guys going to keep playing cheerleader for a country that's on the verge of surrender?
Great News.
F16 is a 70s era tech. How is it advanced? 😂
It has been upgraded many times during its lifetime with new avionics. better radars ect..
Read about the upgrades, up to version V. It's a super fighter and will still be for many years.
The mask is to hide his lip movement. Because he speaks americano
Yeah S400 say hai and welcome...
That’s overkill
It was necessary to select candidates for retraining on the F-16 from Ukrainian civilian pilots. They have good English, experience flying foreign planes, extensive flying experience. They chose people with little experience, no experience in foreign technology, with zero English (the problem of learning a language is TIME). Learning to fly combat missions is MUCH easier and will take LESS time than learning a language. The decision to select candidates was NOT made by a PILOT. How many Ukrainian pilots have been prepared?????????????

Is he sick? My guy shouldn't be going to fight in such a state, bad for the heart apparently.
He is wearing a mask because he is not Ukrainian.
They've been pulling many people off the streets, out of gyms, swimming pools etc they even put a guy with down syndrome on the front lines so this guy here is probably out of a hospital with an illness and that's why he's wearing a mask.
Ukraine has 2 choices bc they currently have Russian Migs. Have no Air Force in the future bc it’s impossible to buy more Russian aircraft. Spare parts. Etc, or make the change to American or western aircraft? It’s that simple, of course it’s a daunting task to make this change, incredibly hard for any country to pull this off. But it has to be done, I wouid people wouid just think more, read more, do some research, instead I read mostly just emotional knee jerk comments
make certain you know where the "Eject" button is

Those are not Ukrainians
The moment these F16s enter the war zone, the lives of these pilots won't be more than 7 days.
not even an hour. 7 days is a long long time. world’s most crowded advanced heavy air defense and electronics signal jamming warfare is waiting for them

Let’s who’ll win. It has been so much hyped But our eyes are peeled
Those are old generation F16s equal to Mig-29.
For the haters In the comments, American weapon systems, aircraft, tanks, etc, are part of a system called combined arms, so you are right not one aircraft or tank etc win by itself. It’s combing all of em together working to support support one another. Sea, air, land, just a handful of the oldest versions of some American weapons like the Himars, Javelins, Bradley’s, etc have had a tremendous effect in this war against Russia, any military analyst wouid tell you if Russia had to square off in battle with America’s military all in, it wouid be a bloodbath, remember I’m just talking about if America joined the battle in Ukraine. Hypothetically, in one or two
Days Americans wouid have complete air supremacy, not just from better aircraft, but bc American pilots and all their maintenance and support units have Ben fighting for 20 years. That experience gained flying combat sorties is critical, anyway the F-16 is the most successful aircraft as far as how many countries buy it for a reason, Turkey just spent 24 billion on buying the newest version, so it’s a very capable aircraft, highly agile, can’t wait to see the videos on RUclips doing damage, and what’s funny is Russia acts way too excited when it knocks 1 American tank, or Bradley, the other day people were losing Thier minds bc they destroyed 1 Abrams tank. It hit a land mine and was later hit by a drone, congratulations you killed one tank,
Now take your muesli bowl and back to the basement
They will never fly over Ukrainian sky. Just a comedy for media...
🫡💯🙏
Hilarious propaganda. Listen to Scott Ritter about this whole bluff..
Flying a military aircraft is way beyond mearly flying an aircraft. The training is so long and rigorous that the aircraft becomes extension of your body. This is all because the pilot has to become so adept that he doesn't even have to think about the action to take and the action to come as a reflex when he is fired upon or when he has to fire as in a dog fight. These cold war era scraps will come as target practice for Russian Sukhois.
Say goodnight to Putin when you meet him...
Ukraine pilots training won't be enough to fly F-16, so NATO pilots will surely fly them.
🤡
Not really. Like I've said before Ukraine pilots even without F-16 are super good pilots. Now with this F-16 takes them to different high level.
Теперь летающий металлолом?! Это просто жирные мишени, на радарах ПВО России!!! Все будут уничтожены!!!

The Russians have failed to establish air dominance in the war, which is embarrassing for them. When these F16's start flying the Russian Air Force will become even more embarrassed as they lose even more planes.
F-16 it's not that invincible either
@arghost9798 correct but it is vastly superior to the Mig29's they currently have. The weapons it can carry are also much better.
Do you still believe in Gamechangers?
@isimportantwhatever I never said it would be a game changer. It will make a difference but on its own it will not be enough to win the war. Russian casualties are horrendous and will get much worse. That will be the game changer that wins Ukraine the war. Russians have a limit on what they are prepared to suffer. Their previous wars have shown this to be true.
Tell us more about this 'game changer' like you have for the past 18 months.
