FYI: Ukraine does have pilots who can fly A-10s (according to CEPA)

Provide US A-10 ground-attack aircraft – currently scheduled to be mothballed – to Ukraine as Excess Defense Articles. Thanks to prior military exchange programs, Ukraine already has a small number of pilots trained to fly the A-10. If spare parts and maintenance are required, use part of the US $1bn funding to allow Ukraine to hire private contractors, rather than involving US personnel directly.

I have seen these exchange programs in action when training at an AFB years ago. At the time they were training Saudi pilots on our planes.

1. I'd love to see what a few A-10s could do.
