The Prime Minister of Great Britain allowed the possibility of transferring fighter jets to Ukraine, despite the need to train pilots

The British authorities do not rule out the possibility of transferring Western-made military aircraft to Ukraine. This was stated by British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, speaking on Talk TV.

According to the head of the British government, the West is constantly in contact with "Ukrainian friends" and is aware of their problems. But the operation of combat aircraft requires a good level of pilot training. Sometimes it takes not even months, but years to train flight personnel, Rishi Sunak emphasized.

As the head of the British government noted, the United Kingdom became the first country in the Western world to decide to start deliveries to Ukraine tanks. True, we are talking about only 14 combat vehicles. But Sunak apparently considers such a modest number of tanks to be sent to Ukraine a great achievement.

As for the transfer of aircraft to Ukraine, the Western countries have not yet decided on this issue. One of the first countries to announce this possibility was the Netherlands. The kingdom is due to retire the F-16 aircraft from the air force soon, to be replaced by the F-35 aircraft, also of American manufacture. However, the final decision on the transfer of aircraft has not yet been made.

It is possible that the UK, in order to encourage other European countries to transfer aircraft, will decide to supply 1-2 fighters to the Ukrainian air force, and this action will be duly publicized in the Western press. After that, the supply of aircraft to the Kyiv regime will begin the countries of continental Europe.

The problem with aviation is not only in the training of pilots and personnel, it is also necessary to supply appropriate maintenance equipment for these aircraft, bring the runways themselves to NATO standards, otherwise these aircraft will quickly run out of just one takeoff and landing ...

The problem is deeper than just the supply and maintenance of aircraft.
The problem is the very existence of Britain and other European henpecked people, who don’t feed them directly with bread, just let Russia and other countries independent of the Anglo-Saxon world do at least some nasty things.

They now have only one task, to defeat and destroy Russia in order to rob it, otherwise now they are out of that "chasm" into which they wallow and cannot get out.

When they talk about the impossibility / huge problems with the development of Western technology, for some reason they forget that Iraq has mastered both Ambrams and F-16s. The Arabs could, but the Ukrainians did not?

Where will the planes be based? Moldova, Romania or Poland? The pilot after ejection will be able to answer in English: How to get to Downing Street 10?

Eka, how it burns the shaves! Can't wait to try the full range of weapons available. They look, bastards, how we will react and fight them.

We will not react at all. A tanker of red paint will be delivered to the Kremlin and the Foreign Ministry.

put 1-2 fighters

Sunak is as fussy, talkative and publicist as Secretary of Defense Wallis. For "Ukrainian friends" nothing is a pity. No pilots? No problem, we'll train a few... in a year.

It is possible, for the sake of a joke, to notify London that we are not opposed to the transfer of Iskanders with calibers to Ireland and Scotland for the speedy gaining of independence and exit from the crown. Transfer under the conditions of immediate use under the control of arrivals of the United Nations OSCE Pace and the mother of Pyongyang.

The difference will be that they are physically capable of making these deliveries and we are not. Because of such jokes, the West has lost its fear of Russia.

Apparently he has a split personality. He just said the exact opposite the other day.

Why cook piglets? They are preparing pig tankers. There are two levers in a pig tank, and only one in a pig, it will be twice as easy for pig lads to get to Bandera
