What about jets?
They will have to improvise with cocaine.
It’ll be a one year mark in just a week. They will want to do something drastic
Yeah.
So, a lot of cocaine.
And seriously, i don’t think the jets will do them any good, UA infrastructure is in shambles, they wouldn’t be very successful in such conditions, pilots are hard to train, and i doubt any nato country will give them those since jets are harder to replace than tanks. RAF has something like 160 combat aircraft including not active, so i guess they will either crawl back from the promise or give them the old junk (probably trainer version of Typhoon). Btw the retiring of that trainer version was planned to take 9 years. This is how “easy” is for RAF to replace planes. And they don’t even have the ability to domestically aquire any more planes since any new aquisition was the US F-35 and they plan to buy 50 more of them in the future.
Also, however disarmament of one of more scummy imperialists would sound good, i don’t think it will happen and i also don’t want it to happen since for the crap worth it would represent another escalation and step towards WW3.
pilots are hard to train
Unless they are already trained NATO pilots, who just happened to quit two weeks ago.

This I concede, but if the goal is to give Lockheed a fat and urgent contact with no questions asked?

Me neither. But then, I wasn’t keen for this whole shitshow to begin with. The ruling class, however, doesn’t seem to mind

Yeah i guess

Of course it is, it’s not only UK after 90’s but tory UK after all.
Even more unrealistic. Ukraninian pilots are not trained for either, and handling a jet well enough to fight in it takes even longer than with a tank. Furthermore, support equipment for western jets does not exist in Ukraine. Nor do doctrines to use them. Romania switched to F-16 years ago and they admit to not being nearly finished with integrating them.
But what if we send them Top Gun Maverick Blu-ray DVDs? Would that speed up training?
Top gun movies are only good for recruiting gay people. And I’m not so sure the Ukrainian army is accepting

Poland also got some F-16 and basically everyone who don’t have to lick US boot to keep his job say it was the worst deal ever, planes are pretty shit, half of them are cannibalized for parts or otherwise not working already and the deal itself was horrible, our military has to basically buy everything in the USA for them and by the way US broke the deal instantly by not providing the agreed offset, but not only no one in government dare to mention that but it would be of no use since we’re stuck with the junk. Everyone was mightily surprised when on parade in 2019 we seen 12 of them at the same time because nobody ever seen more than 8 (there is 48 of them overall).
Of course the only conclusion of that shitfest from our government was… attempt to buy F-35
That’s based on the premise of pilots being Ukrainian
Of course, you’re right.
Best I can do is “x” number of tanksThe almighty Dutch army right now checking if the lease contract of their tanks covers actual combat
