Ukraine still has 'significant majority' of its military aircraft -U.S. official

>"The Ukrainians still have a significant majority of their air combat power available to them, both fixed-wing and rotary wing as well as unmanned systems and surface-to-air systems," said the official, speaking on condition of anonymity.

>The official added that Ukrainian aircraft had suffered some loses, including being destroyed by Russian forces, but did not give details.

>After the opening salvos of the war on Feb. 24, analysts expected the Russian military to try to immediately destroy Ukraine's air force and air defenses.

>Russia has fired more than 500 missiles at Ukrainian targets since the start of the invasion, but is still flying through contested airspace.

America should give them the new super raptor.

Yeah this is why TB2s are busy turning the Russian armor into scrap metal for gypsies. Tank crews and logistics trucks drivers are turning into fertilizer for Ukrainian steppes while Russia said it destroyed all drones Ukraine had on day 1 lmfao.

Maybe they should consider using it.

>Begging for no fly zone
>Actually we still have all our planes

>why aren't they flying

I really don't believe anything thats coming out the U.S. MSM now. I think this has been the final redpil for mel. Even COVID didn't really do this to me. The amount of lying and propaganda going on right now is fucking insane and seems so blatant and open I don't know how other people can't see it.

LOL Lies the Ukrainian airforce has been destroyed; even if they've not been destroyed they all rebased in Poland as they have no fucking Airfields. Get it ok; the US is lying to you.

/thread. 40 km convoy stalled for three days the Ukrainian AF hasn’t Highway of Deathed it.

You should send them more Roach drones so the BUKs can shoot them down all destroyed.

1 robux

There is literal TB2 footage of a TB2 destroying BUK, instead of barking at me you should go to Ukraine and save the BUK operators from becoming fertilizer for the fertile soil of Ukraine. Put your paws to good use.

>fly all your planes to Western Europe and park them in a hangar on the first day of hostilities
>hurr russia can’t destroy our planes, Ukraine stronk

This is a Sukhoi Su-57, though.

Sorry bro but your flag is about to get deleted.

Show me a functional airbase and i'll stand correct begging for forgiveness. I have access to 12 hour 1m terrain data from Maxar for work; give me coords. Yeah I didn't think so.

>still has significant majority
>begging for no-fly zone
yup, checks out.

Are these the same aircraft NATO gave to them that were blown up immediately? They don't even have pilots to fly them.

Footage is old they're all gone now.

This is an obvious bluff. The anonymity of the official is a dead giveaway - they want to put this propaganda out but the speaker doesn't want the Baghdad Bob reputation that will result when the truth gets out.

>still has significant majority
>begging for no-fly zone
>begging for gibs planes

normies would never connect the dots. 'news' like this is aimed at npc's.

>anonymous US official
I don't think there is a person on this planet more full of shit than anonymous US officials cited by the media.

They're significantly outmatched in both numbers and technology.

Ukraine has better ability to fight with anti armor/aircraft weapons supplied by NATO than going toe to toe with jets. They're still going to lose though.

EU knows they're all KIA I think they rejected sending them jets.

>Ukraine still has 'significant majority' of its military aircraft

thats why jokelinzky is none stop crying for a no-fly zone enforced by nato?

lmao based roach

Sure that's basically afghanistan

Ukraine is too poor to actually operate the aircraft. When the ussr split up they divided up the military hardware. Russia was the only country rich enough to keep operating their share.
