Netherlands Air Force General: We need to regain air superiority

The Netherlands Air Force reported that they are beginning to implement programs to improve the skills of military pilots to conduct operations in the framework of air-to-air missions. It is reported that the new program is being introduced due to the fact that in recent years, the Dutch pilots have mainly focused on training support for ground operations, leaving the mission to counter aircraft in the side.

American information resource Defense News reports that after the concentration of the Dutch Air Force on supporting ground operations (Iraq, Syria, Mali), "the skills of conducting air combat are weakened."

The portal quotes a Dutch air force general, Denis Luite:

We need to restore combat readiness. We performed one-sided missions. We need to invest in air missions, develop the skills of military pilots.

The publication reminds that the planes of the Netherlands Air Force from 2014, the year involved in operations in Iraq, with 2016 - in Syria. In total, about 2 thousand departures from bases in Jordan were made. The Royal Netherlands Air Force contributed to the United Nations mission in Mali since 2014, with four Apache helicopters and three CH-47D Chinook transport helicopters. The Apaches returned to the Netherlands at the end of December 2016, and the Chinook left Mali in March 2017.

General Light:

Now our air superiority can be contested. And we will have to restore it.

In this case, the Dutch general did not explain, the superiority in the air over whom the Dutchmen are going to restore.

Ah Dutch, do you be sad? Marijuana in law !!! Smoke and fly away!

There it is strictly. The composition is too secret. Somewhere 4 years ago, a Russian footballer was detained with hemp on the Dutch border. With your own tongue,

If only on a computer monitor, due to the speed of the fingers and no more.

What can I say .. The General blurted out without thinking and therefore delirium is not worth commenting

[Warrior with machine gun]

I immediately thought the same thing, and could not even remember a single Dutch ace.)))

[bouncyhunter]

But where can I get it? Unless to shag on wool, if only not scattered.

[Warrior with machine gun]

no, they won’t find there, they only fly on jambs)))

[bouncyhunter]

So, the country is not destined to recognize its heroes ...

[rasputin17]

I suggest that we open a testing ground for them in the Chuy Valley !!! I remember the Germans came to us to decide what to do with it! But about the departure I do not know, I have not heard !! There, as in the Bermuda Triangle !!

[bouncyhunter]

Seryoga, are you few of your nariks, so give the Dutch too?

[rasputin17]

Pasha is enough! It's just that all of us are fighting, and these will be tolerant and patient !!! In total!

[bouncyhunter]

It’s scary to imagine what “yours” will do with “theirs” in the stub ...

[Warrior with machine gun]

which country are such and heroes, they used to have a calling, the sea, but they pumped it

[bouncyhunter]

Well, why are you like that. They smoked it ...

[Warrior with machine gun]

maybe so, or maybe the Angles poured their talent, often thought about how abruptly, Britain became the mistress of the seas (although I think they have always been too good of themselves, remember at least the stories of “Gebena” and “Tirpitz”) after the Dutch began to communicate too closely with them politically, economically and dynastically, it seems that the Dutch dignitaries taught the ships to build and use them))

[bouncyhunter]

Interesting thoughts worthy of the attention of fleet historians.

[Alex_Rarog]

TashGeneral sent fence grass). I remember 250-200 years ago, Holland at sea sometimes to write people out. But even with aviation they are tight))))

[Retvizan 8]

But here in Russia in general drug addicts are not taken into the army.

[telobezumnoe]

even as they take, alcoholism is the same addiction.

[Alexey-74]

The Dutch, did you smoke ????

[Black_PR]

What do they want to restore ?????? And they had it to restore it ??? Restore your brains after smoking to start.

[rasputin17]

You cannot restore what is not from nature !!

Apparently, we are talking about building a runway in Holland: they are looking for a place by measuring the surroundings with tape measure from border to border. But the size does not fit, then Belgium is in the way, then Germany. Not to land in the sea.

[Banishing liberoids]

Interview from the future, or from a psychiatric hospital? ?? What superiority in the air and over whom is perhaps the Zulus, or the pygmies? ???

[Simon]

[b] We need to restore combat readiness. We performed one-sided missions. We need to invest in air missions, develop the skills of military pilots. [B] Skills are currently not enough for the pilot, we also need excellent aircraft, such as the T-50, or at least SU.

[Berkut24]

I'm afraid to ask - superiority over whom?

[ZVS]

Clowns unfinished.))
Did Holland ever have superiority over anyone?))))))))))
The Dutch are superior only when there is not a single aircraft in another country in the air.

[sabakina]

General Light:
Now our air superiority can be contested. And we will have to restore it.

The Luftwaffe frowned, remembering the Dutch aces!

[den3080]

judging by the quote from the Dutch general, Holland already has undoubted air superiority, BUT ... "can be challenged" and THEN it will have to be restored.
so you can be completely calm, because there is no information about the start of anyone disputing Dutch air superiority, and this process is not fast because the country of Holland is unusually strong with its ... air superiority.

[HEATHER]

At the same time, the Dutch general did not explain This is understandable. But the muzzle will not crack? No need to push. Especially the peasant. Or is he she? Who knows ...

[NKVD]

And when they had air superiority, would anyone say?

[Holoy]

The Netherlands had good air forces. And the Navy is generally great!

[Holsten]

What general air superiority can a general of a country buying foreign aircraft say?

[Warrior Hamilton]

I do not recognize the Netherlands. They always had advantages in the air, but today they’re blundered .... Their air is now some nasty, nasty ..........

[Slovak]

Still bombing civilians? Have you decided to learn something else? The superiority over civil aviation in the plans for the next 50 years?
