I believe the response is due to all the equipment the NATO countries have sent Ukraine... The Russian spokesperson said the Russian fighters will take out the F16s... Cheers fren... ☕☕☕
It's interesting to me that a late 1970's developed fighter jet (and I know there have been varients and electronic modernization programs) being sent to Ukraine is getting a strong response from Russia. Considering all the other military equipment we sent to Ukraine. And yes, I disagree with the US sending anything to Ukraine, but the response for this fighter jet intrigues me. Not that the boys in Ukraine would be able to fly them to their full potential, but more generally, does the Russian response suggest the f16 to still be a match or better in some metrics than Russia's current best fighter jet?
From the video, I would say not in any way... I believe the response is a result of how much the NATO countries have been helping Ukraine... The Russian spokesperson said unequivocally that the Russian fighters will take out the F16s in a head to head fight... Cheers fren... ☕☕☕
I watched that video earlier. At what time in the video did Putin say the F-16 is a problem? Give me a time stamp.

Yes I don't think the F-16s are a problem at all. I don't even think Zelenskyy has pilots to fly them. The Russians will destroy them.
Agreed fren even with NATO pilots the Russians will destroy them...
