WWII airpower very, very different animal from the airpower of today. Ukrainian troops are on the ground and while they have been slowly losing, have largely held their own. American airpower will only act to push the war in Ukraine’s favor.

Ukraine troops have not held their own, over 1.7 million killed, AirPower alone cannot win a war even today.

This war is just about over, and if American AirPower was introduced, which would mean we are all in, what do you think the Russians will do, they will just start targeting our bases in Europe and will be Justified in doing so.

It would take a new ground force of at least 500,000 troops to go against the Russians and neither NATO or the U.S. has those kind of resources any longer and haven’t had for decades.
