Please, Ukraine, wait for the F-16 to arrive before advancing on Russia fortifications. Your soldiers are the most valuable, and wait for the jet fighters to help. Possibly many volunteer trained pilots will come to the help and rescue.

Why a sortie of F-16 could clear out all the Russian defense lines in a week.

Clap at good news-- Ukraine gets F-16 fighter jets, hooray// Science Council Rules Earth not petty dictators


--- quoting BBC ---
The US has approved the transfer to Ukraine of American-made F-16 fighter jets from Denmark and the Netherlands when Ukrainian pilots are fully trained to operate them.
"This way, Ukraine can take full advantage of its new capabilities," a US state department spokesman said.
Ukraine praised the decision it had been pushing hard for since last year.
But it is expected to be months before Kyiv will be able to use F-16s to try to counter Russia's air superiority.
The Dutch are thought to have about 24 operational F-16s which are scheduled to be taken out of service and replaced by more advanced war planes.
Denmark is also planning an upgrade of its fleet of some 30 F-16s.
The US and its allies had earlier ruled out providing F-16s to Ukraine, fearing that this would lead to further escalation with a nuclear-armed Russia.
Russia - which launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 - has so far made no public comment on the issue.

I recall some history of World War 2 where Poland sent its skilled and able airplane pilots to England to fight the Battle of England in the air with its Spitfires against the Nazi invaders.

Well, please, EU, NATO, stand up once again, in the fight of our Times from the Russian dictator, and have those same skilled pilots fly the F-16 over Ukraine.

The Ukraines need a booster shot in the arms as their counteroffense is stalled.

Send not only F-16s, but send trained and skilled pilots along with them so that ***tomorrow** not next month or next year, but tomorrow, the Ukraine skies can be free and liberty and safe.

Repeat and follow the brave and spirited Polish pilots that were so valuable in the Battle of England as their Spitfires ruled the skies.

Fair Sailing,... and Following Winds,....
