See # 40 - possible rumor, maybe not.
It would also reflect an immediate need for Aim-120Ds and Aim-9Ms. The F-16s being provided, most likely are not Aim-9X capable.
Training would have started earlier than originally stated. This could have caused a pilot shortage that Ukraine did not want ruzzia to know about.
Training could be tailored to specific mission capabilities.
For example, a pilot trained in intercepts using Aim-120s and Aim-9Ms could safely fly the anti-missile defense missions and never fly near the contested airspace. This training could easily be accomplished in 2 months or less, depending on the English skills of the pilot.
At the same time, over the past few days, about a dozen experienced pilots have died under mysterious circumstances in Ukraine.
To me, this does not seem plausible and has not been reported anywhere else.
