The representative of the Ukrainian Air Force, Yuriy Ignat, said that Ukrainian aviation is not protected from high-class Russian fighters of the new generation, noting that for an effective fight, the Ukrainian Air Force needs aircraft that are no worse, but better. This is reported by the agency “New News”.
The information representative of the Ukrainian Air Force, Yuriy Ignat, said on a TV show that outdated Ukrainian aircraft cannot withstand the new Russian fighters. The speaker added that success in the air with Russia can be achieved with the help of Western fighters.
“In simple terms, our MiG-29 against the Russian Su-30, which is a modernization of the Su-27, is the same as sitting in a trench with a Makarov pistol, and they will sit with a machine gun or machine gun at a distance of 200 meters. This is actually, if so roughly compared in terms of technology. And plus: they have three machine guns, and you have one pistol”, the speaker clarified.
According to a representative of the Kyiv regime, Ukrainian pilots “squeeze all the juice” out of the remaining aircraft, but they need more “comfortable equipment.” The speaker hints at the F-16 fighters, which the US does not plan to transfer to Ukraine.
It should be noted that the Ukrainian Air Force has old aviation equipment, most of which was destroyed at the very beginning of the special military operation.
