In other words, don't even think of blockading Kaliningrad....



Kaliningrad used to be called Konigsberg which was the capital of the Teuton Order and later the capital of the duchy of Prussia. It is highly strategic.
 
AIM-120s are expensive...abundant, but expensive. AFU will shoot myriads of them as they do with every other piece of free materiel. And they will be exhausted rapidly.
Air to air engagements will likely be little to non existent just like tank on tank. You can count on one hand how many tank on tank engagements have taken place. Russian VKS fighters don't get near the frontlines at high altitude for fear of Patriot missile and Ukraine is getting more batteries so Ukraine F-16's don't need to be armed with Aim-120D's or C7's. They will likely be armed with aim-120c/c5's Ukraine F-16's have been getting a lot of touchups. Ukraine pilots have been training on other F-16's not the ones they will get those are getting software upgrades.
