Anyone know about how long it takes to train a F-16 pilot?

Two years in the US air force.

But none of this matters, this is all about optics and continuing the money flow, not an actual military victory on the ground.

You beat me to it.

Estimates of 300-400 thousand dead Ukrainian military.

But Biden and company want to keep killing them all.

Russia will take out the F 16s quickly.

They have to know that.

So much evil. This admin is evil to the core.
Remember 1/2 million Iraqui infants was worth it, per Madeline Halfbright.

No wonder over half the world is done with us.

“Two years in the US air force.”

More like 6 - 8 months for a trained pilot (i.e., someone who has completed flight training and has some flight hours under his or her belt) to qualify on the F-16. For someone with no flight experience at all two years would not be out of line.
