A great unseating may well be at hand as NATO/EU/US plunge further toward a point of no return, the political, military, economic, social, and moral turpitude that leads to their own demise?

"Highlighting the massive insecurity of such electricity generating devices and the ease of their destruction with a few cheap drones."

Indeed, the real magicians trick will be to prevent the dementia of nothing-left-to-lose annihilation.

All of them will be shot down—"splash one"—by SU-57s using hypersonic R-37/R-77 missiles. The F-16s won't even know what hit them from 90 miles away. That's how utterly stupid we, the Westies, have become. And then we'll discover the pilots were U.S. airmen wearing various NATO uniforms ... furthering the crimes of war.

Russia does not want Ukraine . Russia has been seeking a peaceful resolution. However NATO and the deep state that controls the US are doing their best to provoke Russia into a nuclear war which has been very evident to anyone who has a whole brain . The New World Order agenda is to depopulate the world and control those who are left they are destroying the economies of the world in order to setup a one world economic system . There will be more plandemics and food shortages on the way

In my worthless opinion the real issue is to see if the outmoded F16 can deliver against the Russian jets. It is just a way to spend more money faster.

The most probable outcome is Russia’s ability to bring glide bombs to the front will be reduced, Either side will be avoiding long range A to A. Ukraine has made a significant dent in long range SAM but has many Supression of Enemy Air Defence missions to go. The latter are complex and while we know Ukraine has HARM missiles and air launched decoy, they don’t have JSF nor any older ECM aircraft. So I think the unknown here is how well will Ukraine execute SEAD given the short training and limited equipment. They have done very well using just HARM and short range missiles. A guess is they have degraded Russian SAM by 20%. There’s a lot more to go. This is the real contest. If F-16 come too close they will be shot down by S-400 etc. Using the long range variants of those missiles. Another question is will Ukraine do a good job of hiding and disbursing these jets and do they have enough Patriot missiles to protect them. Has Ukraine built jet bunkers? Decoys? Prepared highways to be used as runways? Dogfights are low probability.

Thanks for this insight, most helpful.

I wonder if Russia is "weapons free" on any F-16's in Ukraine "livery" inside NATO countries.

No. Same reason Ukraine would not attack a Russian aircraft in Belarus.

You mean cyber attack by Russia resulting in dysfunctional reading of remote gas meter data? Etc.?
