I hope this ukrainian pilot survives the war !
Me too!
HES YOUNG AND PROLLY HAS A SMOKING HOT UKRANIAN WAITING FOR HIM! OR 5! HEHE
He survived the worst part. I honestly believe from studing this war the worst is over for the Ukrainian pilots. They are tearing Russia's air defense to dig shit and have more experience and intelligence by the week.
Imagine how scary the first few weeks had to be.
@@dylonmc4323 Hopefully so, yes the beginnings were bloody it seems
IRT Pierre Robert
I would like to see ALL Ukrainian pilots AND ALL ground combat personnel survive.
As Churchill said of the RAF during the Battle of Britain, "Never have so many owed so much to so few." It applies to these young fighter pilots, too.
Fucking excellent comment
This fucking battle is not ww2 or the American revolution or anything else like that. The only reason those nazis a tree e still able to fight and get killed is because NATO keeps pushing them to the front. Alot of people's grandparents died fighting nazis so dont ever compare this bullshit to any heroic soldier of the past .
Churchill was an alcoholic slob who served his globalist puppet masters well
The fact that his fear is not being able to find cruise missiles that’s aimed to his city. The bravery & courage. The selflessness to fight for his nation & people. All this he puts his life secondary for his nation.
America needs more of that. First we fight at the ballot box! If we win there, perhaps other kinds of fighting will be avoided.
Vote for our democracy, PLEASE!
Ukrainian fighters against the Russians are commendable . Putting themselves ahead of their nation are purely devotion and courageous. Respect🙏🏻🤝🥂
@@williamwee866 Your post was admirable. The only thing is (& this is not meant to be critical or mean but...) you meant to say how much devotion & courage the Ukraine fighters have, and they are putting their country's needs above their own. Ukraine is #1 in their lives...and their country is more important than one person (themselves). It is about true sacrifice. You fight & protect your homeland, your comrade brothers who fight with you, your friends, and your family above all else...and above self. SLAVA UKRAINI!

Ukrainian Knights!!
They’re very brave to fly those missions. We started doing them in 1965 and they were called iron hand. The "Iron Hand" is a metaphor to the steady hand and nerves of steel it took for pilots to fly directly at the radar-emitting anti-aircraft missile sites while the radar-seeking missiles flew down to destroy the target.God bless those aviators.
IN VIETNAM THEY WERE CALLED WILD WEASEL RIGHT??
Flying weassale missions?
@@bbgcars They still are called wild weasels. "Technically" the aircraft is called a Wild Weasel. Im guessing the OP ref to "Iron Hand" is the specific operation of running SEAD Missions.
@@nicholasjaeger3132
Yes, the mission is “Iron Hand.” The aircraft are Wild Weasels - or were.
Not it’s just a pod put onto any fighter.

Ukraine is losing, over 300,000 casualties so far, no military leadership, troops refusing to fight, no weapons or ammunition. We will make sure every Nazi in Ukraine is executed & their supporters will spend many years in a Russian prison 😂😂
Let's get "Juice" and his fellow Pilots some F-15s and F-16s as well from USA LETS STOP MESSING AROUND!!..Thank u Ukraine for being Strong, Brave , and standing up for FREEDOM!!!!
It takes at least 6 months minimum to become effective flying a new plane.
Currently, Ukrainian pilots are simulator training for the hope of receiving A10s, but for the A10 to be effective in Ukraine they NEED an effective air defense which I understand they are now expanding. Otherwise the new planes get shot down.
HARM MISSLES FROM USA🇺🇸🇺🇦
Bruh, USA is giving them everything , i mean everything to them without trying to escalate it to third world fucking war....
Yes HARM from 🇺🇸 HAHAHA
@@vicweast So in other words they are all playing DCS ? Probably with the A10c II Tank Killer upgrade module? If they are going to ask for planes they should ask for the F-22 Raptor. 😁
We need more pilots. More fighter jets. Poland Romania any country who can donate 5 or 10 airplanes. Help them please 🙏
@SPECIAL MILITARY OPERATION your the 🤡🤡 getting YOUR ASSES KICKED 🤣🤣🤣.
@SPECIAL MILITARY OPERATION that emoji goes perfect for ur PFP and name. Keep supporting your dictator putler aka Mr Propaganda.
@SPECIAL MILITARY OPERATION this is a long training mission on civilian buildings btw.
Why they will all end up shot down - by the way this video os all propaganda - there is no Ukrainian Airforce - Drone Force
@@cliveengel5744 The Ukrainians do have an airforce with Su-27, Mig-29 and Su-25, among others. They surprisingly survived the early weeks of the war, partly because the Russian bombers didn't find the Ukrainian ground based air defenses (NATO Awacs always snitched on them so the vehicles got out of the way in time). Partly because they did their utmost to avoid engaging Russian fighters and air defenses. They knew they couldn't sortie like they would like to do. But this is changing because of HIMARS and HARM missiles thinning out the Russian air defense systems.
Thank you to the USA for the great support to the Ukrainian pilot fighters. Glory to Ukraine.
America loves the people of Ukraine! I do not know one single person who is against helping Ukraine in every way that we can!
The hordes of invading Orcs have met their match! They are starting to retreat in a few areas. Why?
#1...the courageous people of Ukraine & their fighters! #2) Your leadership, Pres. Zelensky. #3) The unskilled cannon-fodder of 18, 19 & 20 yr old rural russians who are uneducated, poor kids they are shipping over without training & without telling them they are going to fight Ukraine. But they are not all young kids, however. The "mercs" like Wagner Group, the Chechen animals, the regular russian army...those are the war criminals!
The US will continue to stand by Ukraine! And the people here...we will continue to put pressure on our politicians, President Biden and our generals...SLAVA UKRAINI! God bless Ukraine!
Yeah I’m so happy my tax money is going towards helping save the people of Ukraine! Those HARM anti radar missiles are incredible. I hope we can give a lot more weapons and munitions soon.
I hope that all of these pilots make it through this war. Hopefully the Pentagon would be smart enough to bring them back over to the states so that *our* pilots can learn from *them*, as they are easily now some of the most combat-experienced fighter pilots in the world.
Will somebody in the U.S. DoD please give this guy an A-10?
We wish we could do more.
These pilots are literally the real Mavericks, flying old jets against newer soviet jets. Those migs may be upgraded but they came out before the first Top Gun movie.
Wow
Engaging in air defense, very dangerous.
Ukrainian soldiers, BRAVO.
Your ability for learning, pilots on a wing and a prayer. Ukraine now has capacity to protect their sky.
Fight on brave soldiers, blessings, positive thoughts from the free world.
Very proud of your efforts, victory for Ukraine.
What a cool and brave guy! Pure admiration for all Ukrainian fighters. 🇺🇦💪🏻
They are nazis ...learn the truth ,they have terrorized and murdered over 14000 of their own citizens simply for being of russian descent...they are on the wrong side of history
Decoy missions are really dangerous, because your objective is to make yourself attractive and vulnerable to the enemy.
Wild Weasel.....
Facts
The word decoy makes me think of a "sitting duck". That's crazy
F18 hornets and tomcats practice missile x completion chasing nuclear weapons .
@@MausMasher54 i said that!. HEHE
Ideally though you know what type of radar is hitting you ( from your RWR radar warning receiver, what type of launchers work with that radar, and thus, you know the kind of missiles it can fire at you. You can then use the data and intel we have collected on those types of missiles in combination with field data collected (like range to target from your radar) to quite closely estimate how closely you can fly while still being safe. A missile only has so much fuel and a limited range. So if you collect data you can fly right into their launch range while easily having enough time to escape, rinse repeat until the SAM is out of missiles.
Obviously this isnt a perfect solution, and there are ways to counter this strategy but with the right information in advance and a pilots ability to make use of that information efficiently you can get the job done at with greatly reduced risk.
This is true bravery, I can't even imagine the nerves you need to engage in technologically superior fighter jets. I have no doubt they can win over russian pilots if given the chance to pilot better jets. I hope they get the support they badly need.
@Reader Stuff Sounds just about as much as the american pilots. Which means russian pilots are probably better trained which is bad news for the Ukrainians. There is only so much determination and brqvery can do compared to better training.
@@dredgewalker American pilots on average are 200 hours a year
Actually ukrainians have better aircraft than one might think...Mig-29 is in many aspects superior to its american counterparts F-16 F-15 ...all countries that now operate Mig-29 + Su-25 should donate their aircraft to Ukraine..Slava Ukraina !!

Like I've said before, Ukrainians are extremely adaptable and Kudos to them for adapting American missiles for what they have.
You think the Ukrainians figured out how to mount the pylons, attach the missiles, and integrate them into the Migs combat computer and systems, then teach themselves to use them? The adapting was 100% a NATO operation.
@@TexasGreed Lol, you give NATO too much credit and Ukraine not enough. They have surprised all of us with their creativity and even some of their adaptations. Mother necessity brings up new inventions.
That does not mean we do not try to teach them modern professional military ways or suggest strategies, like command decapitation and logistical deforestation, that we know will help. It just means we are not the author of most of their incredible adaptations. They know the deficits of their enemy sometimes better than we do. Some of their senior Military personnel served in the Soviet Army after all, lol.
I hope the Ukrainian Pilot is quite proud of him. With his friends in the military he will Make Ukrainia one of the best country at fight in the world. Congratulation and win this war. You have million of people supporting you. God bless you all.

The beginning of Russia's special operation to liberate Ukraine divided the world into two camps - fascists and anti-fascists. Fascists support the neo-Nazi junta that seized power in Ukraine eight years ago with the help of a bloody unconstitutional coup and started a war against my people (I live in Ukraine), they are zombified by the total propaganda of globalists, they write here in the comments the Bandera slogan "Slava Ukraine", such, according to estimates, about 10% of the world's population, these are people with with a very low level of intelligence, they believe in all the fakes that are published by the globalist media. And there are many more anti-fascists who supported Russia, this is the whole of Latin America except Colombia, all of Africa and almost all of Asia, for example, the population of each of the Muslim countries is 99% on the side of Russia. The globalists made cannon fodder out of the population of my country to assert their dominance over the world, before that, the inhabitants of Vietnam, Yugoslavia, Iraq, Libya, Syria, and dozens of other countries where these Satanists brought their "democracy", and these bloodsuckers brought their bloody "democracy" to the Russian land of my Ukraine in 2014 and we started a war, a war against the Ukrainian people, we were robbed, raped and killed for eight years, it was not Russia that started this war in Ukraine, the damned West started the war against the Ukrainian people in 2014! But finally Russia got tired of it and started an operation to liberate my country. Of course, the globalists immediately began to send mercenaries to help the junta and send here caravans of weapons that primarily kill us Ukrainians, but smart people understand that the totalitarian capitalist dictatorship of the globalists has come to an end, the beginning of a special operation to liberate Ukraine is the beginning of the end of the globalists' power over the world, the world is becoming multipolar and free from the dictatorship of the globalists, and this good,

He doesn't say its not possible but he knows it takes time. Thank you Sir!
EDIT SLAVA
He is one of many that have been flying with the F15C and D unit from the California air guard going back to 2014 he not bragging a lot of them allready have stick time in the F15 and same with the F15 drivers a lot of them have been flying in the Mig 29 a USAF Col and F15 driver was killed in a mig29 a few years ago and thd Mig drivers have been putting that training to very good use

Very brave, very determined and very innovative - incredible
Bravo! 👏
Combing US missiles with mig29 is a formiddable move as the MIG29 is one of the greatest jets ever built her only weakness being her weapon systems. This is a bold move.
It's most likely that Poland showed Ukraine how to install US missiles on MIG-29 because in 2009 Poland changed all their MIG-29's to fire western/NATO made weapons and Poland also installed NATO avionics and much more powerful radars in their MIG-29's. I actually think Poland gave Ukraine few of their MIG-29'S because there was an interview with the Polish defense minister and he said that Poland is only giving MIG-29 parts to Ukraine and the reporter asked if Ukraine could put together a MIG-29 out of all those parts and the Polish defense minister just winked and started laughing. So i think Poland is giving Ukraine the aircraft but they take them a part and drive them over the border into Ukraine where Ukraine rebuilds them.

Excellent! Now send them F-16's and F-15's! Glory to Ukraine! Freedom!
Yeah, it'll be just like the movies. Their pilots can just hop in and fly them like a pilot with thousands of hours in those jets.
What they are describing are "Wild Weasel" tactics, as employed by the US airforce for a long time. One aircraft would try its best to get shot at, preferably in a situation were he can still evade that missile, while another aircraft then moves in to kill the air defense station. It's even better to find them before they fire, but that's easier said then done.
As Taiwanese, I guess we can understand the Ukrainian pilots. The truth is we can only fight our invaders the way America wants us to fight. Taiwan pilots have higher death rate during drills not due to technique, maintenance, or experience issues, but the fighter jet isn't updated enough or too old because the US won't sell us the latest ones. The pity of war brings out the extreme in men and humanity. Stay safe pilot "Juice", I'm sure many are praying for you and for all soldiers.
It's not the people of the US brother, it's our corrupt bureaucracy. We the people no more want to see Taiwan fall to Chinese than we do Ukraine to Russia. Hold fast.

Never heard your voice or naration outside of Dark Docs, Skies ect. Great work. Thanks to Jason also. ;)
We must give Ukraine's Airforce the jets they need now Slava Ukraini from USA
Exactly what jets can the USA supply that Ukrainian pilots can fly?
@@theorncampbell4432 Training pilots is the smallest problem. They'd also need to train the mechanics and ground crews and so on. And establish a logistics train. Airpower is too complicated, there are still more lower hanging fruits like additional HIMARS systems and those HARM missiles. The jets may come in time... But I figure it takes at least a year or two for getting this to work effectively.
Please support. www.wingmenforukraine.com/
HARM missiles definitely help, but even just a few F-16s or F-15s would make a world of difference. I know the US has retrofitted some F-16s (QF-16s I believe) as drones for target practice, they could be useful as the near suicidal decoys or even in actual air-to-air combat.
It takes too long to learn a new systems, plus maintainers
Look the brigth in the eyes, thats cleary the feeling in see the tecnology working so than good.

These guys are tough as nails.
0:10 “Out gunned and out numbered by Russia’s fighters jets.” Shows SU-25
Keep strong
What a excellent pilot
If the HARM is adapted, then other missiles are too. This shows the effects of HIMARs/M270 against S300/400 systems.
Nope, HARMs are easier to adapt because they do most of their work themselves and can even be used as a sensor system to stream data to the aircraft avionics. Other missiles, Air to Air or Air to ground, often need much more "help" from the avionics package, for example to provide a radar lock. Russian made aircraft, especially the older ones flown by Ukraine don't have a lot in terms of computers on board or inside the cockpit. And it's harder to interface those. They'll probably use additional, small, US made computers to talk to the HARMS from the cockpit.
Beautiful video! Respect to those air aces who are defending the skies of Europe, not only Ukraine
I'm ashamed to call myself American. How is it that we can't send Ukraine fighter jets? You. Know the current situation over there? It's a damn shame we won't send them long range missiles. Look at himars!!!! They are a game changer. They need to send them old f16s and migs. Also send longer range missiles. I'm really ashamed we have this technology and won't send it to them. Sad... 😔😞
To the pilot man your brave risking your life.
I wouldn't go up there unless I had backup. The us&national should join you guys and send up planes and fly alongside you guys. Your very brave and your family should be proud of you. 🙏🙏🙏
Well, it's not that simple. Providing fighter jets means a new level of geopolitical responsibility. A step like this is not to be taken lightly as Russia could view it as a further infraction of their *ahem* sovereignty. Ukraine could, in theory, carry out medium to long-range strikes deep into Russian territory if they get systems like the F-16C or F-15E. Contesting air superiority has always been a tricky subject. Yet there are talks about providing Ukraine with A-10s and other types to enable them to defend their own territory more effectively.
@John Grigg the A10 is comparable to the FROGFOOT close air support aircraft. But offering the Ukrainian an aircraft allready phased out makes no sense.
But I believe it is not that easy to down in one shot. Not even manpads.
@@kicksnarehats11 I agree on the escalation point.
But why shouldn't a sovereign state be allowed to purchase fighters for its airforce?
His call sign..... "JUICY"
Keep safe God bless all Ukrainian soldiers
The Ukraines got US advanced missiles after the US revamped Ukraine Migs that were outdated. The fix puts in US advanced computers and technology into the Migs to allow advanged targeting and distancing.
Reminds me of Winston Churchill's speech on 20 August 1940 when he said: "Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few". Talking about the Allied pilots that flew and fought in the battle of Britian.

Glory to Ukraine 👍👍👍
I'm glad to see he has half of his badge UNITED STATES 🇺🇸 AND the other half is UKRAINE 🇺🇦 flags hell ya we are happy to be helping UKRAINE 🇺🇦 to the finish.
Ukraine as a whole have fast learnt how to defend themselves. It's good to see because their military is not as experienced as Russia's, let alone the technical abilities. Without UK and US support, Ukraine would have had new leadership/coup and little to no resistance after Azov fell.
