Russia-Ukraine War - News, Discussions & Updates

[KingQamaR]

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.

What might really aid the Falcons is Swedes are donating ASC 890 Airborne Surveillance and Control aircraft plus Rb 99 AMRAAM missiles. The two AWACs Nato hoping will give the pilots some serious situation awareness and make missions a bit safer.

They will need to be kept far back escorted
From the Russians.

AWAC is easy target for R-37M which has range 200 to 300 km. Su-35 and Su-30SM2 are upgraded to shoot it.

Rheinmetall will deliver a new generation of infantry tank “Lynx” to Ukraine.

Leopards and Abrams failed so now they will try a new one.

Keiv was protected by at least 3 Patriot batteries..... So all failed miserably.

Lynx is APC, not MBT. APC is easy target for laser guided shell.

What is I think the most important about F-16's and AWACS is it will give Ukraine the ability to shoot down cruise missiles and shaheed drones. Ukraine (more like the US) knows when a cruise missile attack is coming, and I mean time wise, the problem is they don't have the aircraft to successfully shoot them down the F-16's will remedy that.

Second most important is SEAD/DEAD. Those F-16's need to come like this....

The HARM receiver is really necessary it can geolocate IAD radar that is painting the fighter and datalink the info to other Vipers which upload the info to HARM missiles very quickly and turning off the radar won't help. Vipers will know if the radar is too far to take a shot without the receiver Vipers will only know type of radar that is painting them but won't know distance just general area. Centerline EW pod is also important allowing Vipers to get much closer to frontline targets at high altitudes.

Russian fanboys will bring up r-37M but r-37M hasn't had success against soviet era flankers and migs since Russian fighters don't fly anywhere near the frontline.

Fighters jets maybe about 20. Tanks maybe about 200.

This is very conditional data. It is impossible to say even approximately how many planes and tanks are left. The number of the equipment is strictly concealed
