“Too few planes”: Polish Minister of Defense Blaszczak announced the decision not to supply F-16 fighters to Kyiv

Another European country backed down on the issue of deliveries of fighters to Ukraine, we are talking about Poland, which just a few days ago actively advocated sending combat aviation Kyiv. The decision was announced by Defense Minister Mariusz Blashak.

The Polish weather vane turned the other way from Ukraine, Warsaw decided not to supply F-16 fighters to Ukraine, explaining its decision by their small number. As Blaszczak explained, the Polish Air Force has "too few" modern aircraft to share them with Ukraine as well. But just recently in Warsaw they claimed that they were ready to supply fighters to Kyiv if someone starts deliveries first.

I want to emphasize that Poland has too few modern fighters to be able to participate in such a program (...) We have only 48 F-16s. We ordered F-35s, ordered Korean FA-50s, but their delivery takes time

- said the Polish Minister of Defense, adding that Warsaw does not mind if other countries that have significantly more aircraft send them to Ukraine.

In general, today is a bad day for Kyiv; a third country is already refusing to supply combat aircraft to Ukraine. Okay, Sweden, it seems to support Kyiv, but within the framework of a common European policy. But the UK and Poland, the two leaders in Zelensky's military aid he had pinned certain hopes on, also betrayed the Kiev regime, leaving it without much-needed planes.

Earlier, the head of the Pentagon, Lloyd Austin, called the issue of transferring fighters to Ukraine a non-priority issue, urging the allies to focus on the supply of ground equipment as part of the preparation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine for the spring offensive.

the Poles gave back and this says a lot .. The Ukraine is in a difficult situation and Russia does not intend to retreat from the goal of the NWO and may go further!

This is called kharchok in a piglet from the fraternal Svidomo people to the Kyiv fascist regime.

So. There are only 48 F-16s. And where did the Polish MiG-29s go? Or are they no longer Polish, but Ukrainian?

This suggests that a little comes to the Poles - Fy number 16 (what a ba he was not beautiful) most likely cannot be used from the outskirts of airfields.
That is, this aircraft will be based on the bases of, say, Poland, and now the descendants of the winged hussars and the gentry are beginning to understand no good in this undertaking.
So there are suspicions that the Kremlin said the same -fu dog \uXNUMXb\uXNUMXbto sit (moreover, most likely not officially).
Who knows, patience is not unlimited and probably reaches the gentry - Russia will no longer forgive them and what's next is vague and disturbing.

Ukrainian aviation has been operating from NATO airfields for a long time.
As the United States gives the go-ahead for the supply of aircraft, they will.

[Lt. Air Force stock]

If the United States had said that they would supply them with the F-35, then they would easily agree. But the States already have so many F-16 fighters (more than a thousand), it will be easiest for them to supply them themselves than later to compensate someone by spending money.

It may well be information misinformation. Cover. Although everything is possible, they scratched their foreheads

Sie haben keine Flugzeuge und auch sonst nichts zu verschenken,
aber ständig die Fresse groß aufreißen; war es je anders...?!?

Höchste Zeit diesen widerwärtigen Schaumschlagern ein fur alle

Both on the corner of the show!!! Here's a half-red banner for you ... 21 is not only the day of February, when “something” turning point will be read out. It turns out that this is also a "point" ...

The sooner the Russian Federation comes closer to the western borders of Ukraine, the sooner the alienated areas will go to Poland.
If Ukraine survives, she, Poland, will not see Ukrainian lands.

[astra wild2]

I will not cry from the fact that with the planes, they are in flight.
Even without the F16, they are stuffed with weapons. True, bummers have become more frequent recently: Israel was silent about: the "iron dome", long-range missiles only "smiled"
The Netherlands and Denmark refused Leopards.
There is reason to be discouraged

[DefenderofTruth]

It's just complete bullshit!
Now the APU will have to fly on trampolines!
