“When Ukraine needs thousands of pickup trucks, each with one of the following weapons:

- rocket tube launchers
- recoilless rifle
- SPG-9”

I totally agreement Ukraine could greatly utilize this equipment.

IMO, best option both! LOL

However I don’t believe this precludes the necessity the Ukraine development of a defensive air force. U.S. officials mentioned that two Ukrainian pilots flew F-16 simulators and got a feel for the training. The U.S. Air Force determined r an experienced Ukrainian fighter pilot could learn the F-16′s more advanced systems realistically in about four months, if the pilots were already trained to fly their own Soviet-era fighters.

The great need for Ukraine to have a defensive air force is apparent. Even decorated former US Air Force pilot Dan Hampton said he would fly fighter jets for Ukraine if necessary!!!
