Lviv, Ukraine (today)
Man this image is crack cocaine for the patriot in me
Take back your skies, brothers and sisters.
Слава Україні!
I like how the F-16 with the hat on the intake looks like a goofy smile.
Where’s that F-16-chan image where she’s always going :D
Edit: Here they are!
Apparently it’s very happy to be part of the gang now
Did Ukraine just get F-16s and finish training their pilots?
At least 1 f-16 is airborne over Ukraine as of today.
The pilots and crews have been being trained for some time.
This is the beginning.
Hopefully the beginning of the end of the Russian invasion, but let’s see.
It definitely isn’t a win now button for Ukraine. Some estimates are they’d need several hundred to achieve air superiority, and then they’d still need to be able to follow though on the ground. But any additional airframes will help first stop Russian glide bomb attacks, then allow Ukrainian contested close air support of their own.
Partially. 6x F-16AM from Netherlands, reportedly. More to come.
Pilot be like “aw fuck I can’t see who put this on here?”
Don’t need to see, have BVR tech.
Shouldn’t these little bastards be putting reactive armour on that bad boy?
C’mon, there’s limits.
You put it on the payload.
