Ukraine is in no condition to fight a war with Russia. Two decades of neglect of its armed forces have taken their toll.

Well the aircraft are certainly satisfactory, and Ukrainian pilots can fly them well enough, but can they do it right now.
They are gonna need considerable practice and training exercises to get up to the game the Russians can mount tomorrow.

UKRAINE needs to be infiltrating Russia and establishing sabotage cells in every major Russian City. In fact they should be making thing go pop NOW.
They won’t match the Russians with Aircraft and Tanks but will with mines, mortars, and many easy to accomplish soft target sabotage.

Does Ukraine have adequate spare parts on hand? They might experience a back order from the Mikoyan factory, maybe...just guess’in.
