    Greetings from Ukraine. Thank you guys for not forgetting about us. In an interview, a Ukrainian MiG-29 pilot said that it is more difficult to shoot down Iranian Shekhed 131/136 than cruise missiles. Because of less visibility on radars and a large difference in speed with the aircraft. The Russians will launch them at us at night. The MiG-29 is an aircraft from the 1980s with poor night vision. and bad radar. As I understand it, he shot down five Shahed 136s at night, but the last one damaged the plane with its debris and the pilot had to eject. Maybe he shot them down with guns. I am sure it will be easier with the F-16. But this winter we will again have to survive an attack on the electrical system without the help of F-16s. I don't know if we will manage this time. Last winter there were 2 blackouts, when the whole country was without electricity for more than a day. And the usual schedule was 4 hours there is electricity, then 4 hours there is no. And so it was from October to March.

    • @stupidburp
      @stupidburp Рік тому +1

      Maybe strap some Stingers to the MiGs. They have an air to air variant but maybe some jury rigged MANPADS would work too. They are fire and forget and relatively inexpensive but have short range. Would need to pass close behind the target drone or missile before firing.

    Ukraine will get AIM-120 for the F-16AM MLU's, it makes no sense not to because the technology is already being used on the NASAMS

      Kh-101. Almost 60-70 percent of cruise missiles lobbed at Ukraine are Kh-101's, they're one of the easiest to intercept, hardest or none intercepted so far the onyx.
