I cannot help but notice how young this pilot seems to be. May he remain safe and come to base safely every mission, already far too many lives lost in this war, for nothing other than the lunatic desires of one deluded megalomaniac. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦, heroyam Slava! Blessings from Canada 🇨🇦
all fighter pilots are young. This job doesnt fit an old man. But, yes, ukrainians are too young, they are dying in their first flights as never had time to master their skills.
I thought and I felt the same thing. They look so young for a reason...the heroes who sacrificed before them. God bless them all. Glory to Ukraine and her many, many heroes.
M8,your perfect selection of words is exemplary and I bow my head with respect to you . The sooner that the greedy maniac is neutralised the better life will be for mankind.
@@Brocklesner12367 Fun fact. Russia has lost 4 times more men D€AD in 580 days then America lost in 10 YEARS of Vietnam war and we all know who won that war.
@@sugoidesshoI think you just described the Army that ran away in Afghanistan and Vietnam, who would that be I wonder. USA on both counts then the UK with the USA in Afghanistan.
God bless you!!!! Win the war with evil!!! Good luck to you guys!!!! The Collective West is with you!!!! P.S. the Ukrainian pilot seems like a boy!!!! Very young!!!! Good luck to him personally!!!!!
I am with others here he seems so young but war fighting is a younger mans game. In the US pilots are officers and are older by necessity of rank. I am doubting this mans ability, I am just 70 years old and everyone seems young to me God bless you young man..Slava Ukraine..I cannot wait to see what Ukraine can do with proper aviation support.
The F-16 & MIG-29 are both cold war era aircraft. I've heard that the F-16s have been upgraded over the years, but were they more advanced than the MIG-29 back in the 80s ? Are the Ukrainian Mig-29s useless ?
Pilots and Astronauts says, its better to fail and learn on the ground (in simulators and briefing room), so you can be triumphant and successful in the air or in space.
My wife says that all these young pilots should have their semen frozen in case they die, so that these superior genes of these young, brave intelligent men can live again. Their mothers and grandmothers will be able to see them again in a healthy baby. From Ireland
Dear The Sun, I watched this video for the train you got me excited about. But I don’t see one? I thought I was getting Ukrainians, in a train while in an F16 while they adapt to this new hybrid warfare you speak of
Most of the F16 are the Block 15 with an MLU upgrade. So it's the first frame of the 1970s with some upgrades. Not enought. They longevity stops this or next year. Not so good avionics... why don't they give the Block 70/72. Or the block 50
The block 15 MLU is basically comparable to the block 50/52 which was the whole point of the MLU program. That the airframes are mostly late -70s/early -80s does not mean anything as long as they have been maintained properly and have flying hours left on them. Besides, the F-16 airframe is designed for a lot more flying hours (8000 hrs.) than e.g. MiG-29s (2500 hrs.). But I guess you are an expert...
pilots laugh from simmers even in the scenarios "can a simmer land an airliner". And here we are given playing DCS as an important stage in the preparation for the F-16. Yes, with dual engine throttle from A-10. Great.
Yes. Most of Nato trains extensively in simulators. Many are either, offshoots or precursors to civilian simulation games. For example, VBS, which is used extensively by the US military, is related to the ARMA series of computer simulations. You can build all the basic core skills, and advanced tactical skills in a simulated environment. At the same time, you lower the cost of training, don't use fuel, reduce the maintenance cost of running a platform though max performance combat routine, cut dramatically the time invested in pre and post-training activities, and can train day or night, in any weather condition, against an enemy that actually shoots back (and can be manned by a real person). The experience you acquire in the simulator shows in the field. I used them extensively during my time in the military and they were a great help. Rather than waiting for field experience, you could compress dozens of conditions and scenarios in a highly efficient training tool. By the time you hit the field you could see a marked difference between units that were taught in the classroom and those who had gone through simulators. I won't say it will turn a green unit into a fully veteran one, but properly used, it can take it about halfway there.
@WLADIMIR0809 Pal, I have no idea what you are talking about. I am talking about my own experience as a Soldier and a troop leader. I used simulators extensively and I made my Soldiers use them too. So I can tell you, from personal experience that they work.
Why does Ukraine🇷🇼 still use the Russian 🇷🇺script? Does Ukraine think that it can communicate with the other EU 🇪🇺countries using the same script that the Russians 🇷🇺have? What is stopping them from giving up the Russian letters?
If you see two fish fighting in sea , you know there is englishman somewhere near . Its not something new that they will fight russia untill last ukrainian , and word Slav and slave word of same origin .
Keine Sorge, die USA und die BRD haben weitere Gepards aufgekauft. USA 60 aus Jordanien und BRD 15 Katar. Auch in anderen Ländern gibt es welche. Des Weiteren sind noch Skynex im Angebot, die sich sogar um herannahende Granaten kümmern können. Zwei sind bereits in der Ukraine im Einsatz. Könnte dann ein weltweiter Exportschlager werden, wie IRIS T, die auch die Hyperschall-Super-Duper-Rakete zum Absturz bringt. Die Taurus-Marschflugkörper werden dann weit im Hinterland aufräumen. Russische Schiffe können sich dann darauf freuen, sie abzufangen. Dann werden wir sehen, wie ihre Systeme wieder versagen. S400 kann nicht einmal einen Himars abfangen.
Few dozen of F 16 won't make a real difference. Ukraine has lost the war anyway. The western countries has shown their limit in supplying weaponry to Ukraine. After these F 16 will be shot down and the Leopards and Abrams destroyed there will be no more serious weapon delivery. Russia is simply grinding these weapons and then will go freely all over Ukraine.
@@ragnarone5409 cette guère sera perdue par les ukrainiens. Tout ce qu’on vous raconte n’est que mensonges. La Russie ne se retirera jamais des territoires conquis. Le temps joue en sa faveur. Zelenski et ses sbires n’en ont plus pour longtemps.
Go Ukrainian pilots. Train well, study well. Master the F16. Ukraine needs your special skills to destroy the orcs. We are praying for your safety and health. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
Felicidades hermanos Ucranianos, ustedes tienen todo el derecho y obligación de superarse y defender su patria. Viva la defensa de Ucrania y muerte al imperio comunista criminal.
