According to him, now the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is used in Ukraine managed aviation bombs, which are discharged from Su-34 aircraft at a distance of 70 km, and the Armed Forces can not answer it because they have no appropriate weapons. According to the analyst, it is possible to knock down the planes at such a distance only with the help of full-fledged air-air missiles with a long range of action that can be integrated into the F-16.
"That is, these weapons can break the course of this war. Aviation is very needed, and I'm sure it will be. The question is only when and in what quantity," the analyst said. He added that with a long -range airline, air forces will be able to exhaust Russian reserves that are located in the occupied Crimea. "Ukraine needs at least three F-16 squadrons, ie 36 aircraft," Petro Chernik said.
We will remind that UNATO July 3 stated that Ukraine will not receive F-16 fighter jets before the counter-offensive is completed. The reasons are that Ukrainian pilots have not been trained to work on fighter jets, as well as the fact that the logistics that can be supported by these planes are not organized.
