I believe it is a truism that pilots are always more valuable than aircraft. Planes can (generally) be produced or procured somewhere. But pilots are hard to replace.

Forcing your pilots to go up in any old thing that flies is a desperate move by a nation that is losing badly.

A desperate move by a nation that wants to exist. Shame on them.

WWII Germany and Japan come to mind.

They have to fight with the aircraft they have.
