"They’ve just been given more F-16s than they had MiG-29s and Su-27s"
Day 5 of no F-16 delivery [29-08-2023], contrary to the hopium posted by some Ukie cheerleaders.
In today's update, the Ukie Air Force has been relieved of a couple of Su-25 pilots by the Russian air defense over Mala Tokmachka and over Novodanylivka.
The pressure from The Ukraine's US-NATO handlers to break through near Robotyne is costing Vlod the Impaled some of his future F-16 pilots. It is to laugh.
Today's report from Robotyne was released by the DPA War Channel at around noon EDT:
STUCK IN ROBOTYNE - Ukraine Summary D550-551 [4:22 long]

If the hopium priapism lasts more than 5 days the cheerleader will need emergency care.
When I was working in Moscow I visited the MiG plants , what I learned. As ratty as the Migs are said to be, they can do an engine swap in less than 8 hours, in the field. Designed to be supported and operated in the field, unlike western aircraft, a big, big plus.
More, but my money goes on “ Vlad’s rusty old equipment “, just a comment from one who has been there.I will further “ forecast”, as with the Ukie failed offensive- we will see smoldering F-16’s AND M1’s ( IF they ever arrive in theatre).
Slava slippery slope! 😱
Ready to answer the questions you keep ducking? I guess so if you are contacting me.
I predict you will still refuse to answer my questions, nor explain the difference between the words "give" and "delivery". You can't explain that difference because it blows up your semantics strawman, and you know it. That's why you're a dishonest person.
99.8th percentile in English
Then explain the difference between the words "give" and "delivery".
The first is what I wrote, the second is your strawman, can you explain how they differ?
There is no quote by me asserting that F-16 deliveries won't happen.
Liar. In posts #137, #135 and #129 you called them "vaporware". I've had an over two decade career in IT, and that term has a meaning:
In the computer industry, vaporware is a product, typically computer hardware or software, that is announced to the general public but is late, never actually manufactured, or officially cancelled.
You're probably not stupid enough to assert the F-16s that Denmark and Norway have given to Ukraine were never manufactured, do you want to assert that the transfer will be officially cancelled? Or is this another English term you struggle to effectively understand in context?
You say a lot of stupid things. I'm trying to pin down why you say them. Why bring up a proposed 8x artillery advantage, if it doesn't translate to any advantage on the battlefield?
You still have no answers, because answering the questions exposes your fantasies don't match the on the ground reality of Russian retreats since March of '22.
You ducked the questions again, you feckless coward.
We're observing a peer-to-peer war in The Ukraine, where the PEER adversaries are slugging it out like an Irish stand-down. Only Russia has an 8 to 1 advantage in artillery, and has totally degraded the Ukrainian air defense system.
If Russia still possesses an 8-1 advantage, why do you consider Ukraine their peer? Shouldn't the side with 8x the artillery be considerably superior to the side that has only 1/8th the artillery? You have no answers.
Why, with this presumed enormous artillery advantage, did the Russians find themselves forced back from Nikolaev into a "futile" position in Kherson where they were forced to flee across the river? You have no answers.
How bad does the Russian army suck to possess an 8-1 advantage in artillery and still get forced into retreat after retreat by the foe you started the war with? You have no answers.
Why do you think that is happening to the Russian forces if they possess this massive superiority in arms? Are they not even 1/8th as competent as the Ukrainians? You have no answers.
What's the reason for their repeated reversals and retreats from "futile" fighting positions in Ukraine? You have no answers.
How do you explain it to yourself? You have no answers.
Can you explain now how you'll pivot when the F-16s are delivered like the other promised weapon systems have been? Will you try to convince yourself that Ukraine is worse off replacing Soviet Cold War gear with NATO Cold War gear? How will you spin it to yourself? You have no answers.
I predict you'll evade and spin, and refuse to address these questions because you actually have no answer. There is no explanation for what is happening in reality juxtaposed with your fantasies about Russian combat strength.
I’m not going to quit putting your intellectual cowardice on display by posing these questions you’re too afraid to answer every time you interact with me. When F-16 deliveries take place I’ll be sure to include your quotes asserting it won’t happen. Any other predictions you want to make now for me to include?
