Hopefully Ukraine will be able to protect those incoming F-16s.............. they'll be a game changer eventually if they have a good plan in place to keep the planes secure.

They're going to have to be on the move non-stop and will need a ton of AD covering them which means less for civilians, plus Ukraine doesn't have many runways suitable for them, if NATO grew some balls and put troops into Western Ukraine then they could protect them or let them take-off from NATO countries the same way Russia used Belarus as a staging post because they knew Ukraine wouldn't attack them.

Agree, but that is too much common sense to let them take off from a NATO country.

Would love to see if Russia had the balls to attack an airfield in a NATO country.
