    Ukraine would have gotten all of that if they could be trusted not to use it to attack Russian mainland. The issue is that the fascists can't be controlled so they have to strictly control and take care not to give them tools that they can use to do that.

      Yeah, I love how clueless the libs and NAFO chuds are when every aid package to Ukraine specifically excludes long range missiles for this exact reason

      They think Ukraine is gonna be able to hit Putin and end everything like a video game

      The big brain move would be to get the UK to ask for them and just include them in the next storm shadow shipment.

      I mean Ukraine is supposed to get their first F-16 fighter jets sometime this year, but there is no chance they get the new US toys in the F-35 and F-15EX. They'll never get that.

    Ukraine is never getting F-35s, do people really think that the US is going to allow Russia to get combat data on it's latest stealth jet? At most they'll get some old F-16s.

      Having put no research into this, I bet the reasons for why the F-35 is not put in an actual combat situation are much more mundane.

    Odd that Isn'trael asked for F-35s. Hamas has no AA to speak of so a non-stealthy and cheaper bomb mule makes more sense for fighting in Gaza. Acquiring more stealthy planes implies that they're worried about opponents with actual air defences.

    In that region, Egypt, Iran, and Syria operate Russian S300 AA missiles that can seriously threaten any non-stealthy plane. Kind of a sign that Isn'trael is gearing up to hit one of them.

    Anyone with 🇺🇦 and 🇵🇸 in their name needs to go live in Donetsk for a year to learn their underdog fetishism doesn’t apply to Ukraine as cleanly as they imagine

    Ukraine really overplayed their hand

    They thought that they were white, because they hated the Russians

    In reality they were just sacrificial lambs
