"Designed for another combat theater": the observer suggested which area of the Armed Forces F-16 will be thrown to
Western fighters will be able to influence the situation on the front, taking into account the "creeping" offensive of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, said military observer Alexander Kovalenko by the publication minval. Az. According to him, now the most intense direction of the offensive of the Russians is Pokrovsky and Toretsky.
Here, the Russians have to solve the following tasks in the plans: the concentration of large forces and means allowed the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in the Pokrovsky direction to advance 21 kilometers. There was no great role in this in the use of managed aircraft, which there is no effective counteraction to the forces of Ukraine's defense forces.
"Damoping the Caba 40-50 km from the LBZ, Russian battle aircraft are outside the area of defeat of the Ukrainian air defense of small and medium radius, and the CA itself can plan at a distance of up to 70 km. Meanwhile, the F-16 have a wide nomenclature There are also air-air missiles that will be able to knock down Russian tactical aviation even before its flow to the place of dumping the CA, "-says the expert.
He noted that since the Russian Federation will continue to use the cabits, the relevance of the F-16 on the counteraction of the Su-34 will last a long time. But only if Ukraine will receive the most modern modification of AIM-120 Amraam with its maximum characteristics. "F-16 is intended for another combat theater. When talking about the use of F-16 in the database area, first of all, they mention the hottest points. Toretsko-Pokrovsky direction, Kramatorsk and others.
But it seems to me that this is a completely correct approach. 'F-16 is immediately directed to the epicenter of combat clashes, since their initial small amount indicates a more spot, jewelry. The small amount of M142 Himars M142 (4 units) said it is a drop in the sea, and they would not be able to do anything and somehow influence the LBZ more than a thousand kilometers long. However, they showed themselves and brought their results.
"Similarly, the F-16 can be used at a single combat theater, thanks to its multifunctionality by performing a variety of tasks. The F-16 is not only mentioned by the AIM-1220 AIRAM missile mentioned above, making them a dangerous hunter for Su-34, but also planning bombs AGM-154 Joint Standoff Weapon, are more dangerous than Russian CACRs due to flight and high accuracy. SCalp EG. He noted that the F-16, in his opinion, is best used in Crimea.
"In my opinion, despite the difficult situation in the Toretsko-Pokrovsky direction, the F-16 will not be thrown at the solution 34. In 2024, the F-16 will have a completely different task, on a completely different section of the theater of combat. He suggested that, perhaps in the 2025th F-16, as in due time and M142 Himars, will be distributed and fixed to each of the bridgeheads-databases, but so far this multifunctional fighter will be used as carefully as possible, accurately, jewelry.
