Won't make any difference.... this war will not end until we put boots on the ground then it will not be a Ukrainian war it will be WW3.... and it will reach our shores this time... vote for Trump if you want the killing to end... if you want the killing to go on and on and spread to American troops vote for Biden...

Sorry, we can't afford to give those to you.

But I do know a guy who owns a fireworks stand. I could hook you up with some whistlin' bungholes, spleen splitters, whisker biscuits, honkey lighters, hoosker doos, hoosker don'ts, cherry bombs, nipsy daisers, and negro-chasers.

The Dutch are saying the 10 Ukrainian pilots won't be ready to fly F-16s till the end of the year.
There are more planes committed to the effort than trained Ukraine pilots at the moment.

If I get this right, the Orcs intercepted a HIMARS. Poor S -300 can't even defend itself. :auiqs.jpg:
 


I believe there are only 10 pilots being trained in the EU at the moment. Also, they are using French simulators.

Here is some new info on training Ukrainian pilots in the US.

The first Ukrainian pilots have completed F-16 fighter jet training at a military base in Arizona, with others soon to follow this summer.

"The first batch has graduated, and other Ukrainian pilots are finishing their training here by the end of August," Arizona National Guard spokesperson Capt. Erin Hannigan told VOA.
The graduates include a handful of Ukrainian pilots who had trained at Morris Air National Guard Base in Tucson, according to a U.S. official who spoke to VOA on condition of anonymity because of security sensitivities. Out of an abundance of caution for the pilots’ safety, officials declined to provide an exact number of how many had graduated or the number of those who remain in F-16 training"

 
The Netherlands will start delivering its F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine this autumn and the war could be over by then. The delivery has been delayed for a year. This female defense minister may have overstepped her boundaries and Biden may still have to approve the use of Dutch F-16s, which are American-made.



The Netherlands gives 24 F-16 fighter jets to the Ukrainian air forces to use them against targets in Russia. This does not require permission from the United States, Foreign Minister Hanke Bruins Slot said. The use is also not limited to the border region near Kharkiv, as is the case for American weapons.

The F-16 is American-made, and therefore the US has a say in some decisions. For example, they held up the delivery of F-16s to Ukraine for a long time. But restrictions on where Ukraine can use them "have never been discussed," Bruins Slot said after consultations with her NATO colleagues in Prague.

The outgoing minister contradicts previous reports that the US should approve. The US is reluctantly giving Ukraine more room to use American weapons across the border. For now, this only applies to the new front near Kharkiv. The 30 Belgian F-16s that Ukraine can expect to receive may only be used against targets in Ukraine.
