The Zelenskyites waste everything they get. They don’t bother targeting, instead using vast amounts of ammo—after all, they aren’t paying for any of it, anyway.
It’s just like the difference between hard-earned 1st vs. 2nd generation wealth. The original earners value every dollar, while 2nd generation blows the money.
This madness must end.
I saw a NATO video today that says the US is giving thirty Super Tucano fighters to Ukraine. They’d actually be the newest fighters in the conflict.
“Ukrainian President Voldymyr Zelensky on Tuesday said he “raised the issue” of F-16 fighter jets…”
Where does it stop and our being actively at war start?
The F-16 Fighting Falcon is a compact, multi-role fighter aircraft. It is highly maneuverable and has proven itself in air-to-air combat and air-to-surface attack. It provides a relatively low-cost, high-performance weapon system for the United States and allied nations. In an air-to-surface role, the F-16 can fly more than 500 miles (860 kilometers), deliver its weapons with superior accuracy, defend itself against enemy aircraft, and return to its starting point. An all-weather capability allows it to accurately deliver ordnance during non-visual bombing conditions.
That makes it an attack, not defensive, weapon we cannot trust Zelensky to use properly. This whole thing started with the Ukraine as an attack on their country by an enemy that has been actively at war with them since 2014 and has been at odds with them since the Ukraine bailed on them in 1991.
Ukraine’s fighter pilots fly MiG-29 Fulcrum and Sukhoi Su-27 Flanker jets. Flight International’s 2022 almanac of air forces listed the Ukrainian service as having 43 MiG-29s and 26 Su-27s in its fleet. Both are Russian design and have been in the Ukraine fleet for a while. So they have weapons of this type. They just want a bigger one to compare.
What Zelensky is trying to do is add attack weapons that were designed to handle those the Russians now possess. So at what point is the US becoming part of an attack war which was determined defensive in it’s origin with weapon supplementation designed for attack and will he keep it on their soil? Magic 8 ball says probably not.

No, thanks anyway.
We happen to have more immediate and pressing defense worries at the moment.
This Vet from a war some decades ago would prefer that (since this is a European war that affects Europeans in Europe) that the Europeans supply the Euros and whatever military aid they feel is necessary.
