No good can come from any foreign policy actions that the Biden administration makes.

What's this? Game-changing weapon #23?

Yet despite all this NATO wunderwaffe, Russia is still occupying like a fifth of Ukraine.

When the Ukrainians run out of men aged 16-60 to die for NATO, the DC maggots will figure out a way to get the Poles and their people involved.

In last April Hodges claimed Crimea is going to get back under Ukraine by November.

As a side note, what happened to hundreds of Ukrainian jets they had prior?

When do we get to stop pretending this is not a US false-flag vs Russia war?

Hodges knows far more than his critics, however fighters alone will not end the war by themselves. Air power helped win both Gulf Wars because it was the US and Allies versus Iraq, not Ukraine versus the Russian front line VVS. For starters, the USAF had protected ground bases while Ukraine is operating from temporary mobile bases on highways to avoid attack.

First choices are any remaining MiGs' or Sukhoi's in Eastern European countries, replaced by F-16's. If Ukraine gets non-Russian aircraft, the most likely one is the F-16. Using AMRAAMS on cruise missiles would help deter Russian attacks on civilian infrastructure and serve as better HARM platforms. Russia is not looking forward to getting reminded how T-72s fared in Iraq, they will not like Ukrainian pilots flying more MiG's and Sukhoi's, or F-16's.

What is missed in all this, if it gets to the point where Ukraine can use and not lose non-Russian combat aircraft like the F-16, then Ukraine will almost certainly be on the way to winning before they arrive. For this subject to have serious high level discussions means the US and allies are thinking that long term, Ukraine is going to win.

A war was never won by air power alone. But the flyboys always say it can. Hodges went to the USMA so he should know better.
