Why the delay in sending these 40 year old Hornets to Ukraine?
The continued delay in the provision of these aircraft is without rational basis. Not only is the approval for transfer of aircraft being delayed but also manuals, textbooks, simulators and training for pilots, ground crew, electricians, and mechanics. This is unacceptable, the Biden administration and the pentagon should be ashamed of this bungling in providing what is required by our friend and ally in fighting against ruzzia’s genocide in Ukraine.
~ Side note according to Denys Davydov the cockpits in the F-16, and the F-18 are the same. However the F-18 would be a better fit and a better short term solution to get things moving in the right direction for Ukraine.
Biden and the rest simply don’t want to see a decisive Ukrainian victory. They are earning huge sums by letting this war fester.
What else should I think about this idiocy? There is no rational justification to keep certain vital weapons from being handed to Ukraine.
