Ukraine pilots training on US Jets.. This is a good thing...

I heard a Ukraine commenter say that Ukr pilots are training on US F16/15 and F/A 18 jets.
I guess the gates are now open to "Lend Lease" Jets to the UKR air force.

Denys is a commentator based in Kyiv and is a UKR commercial jet pilot
The info on the jet training is at about 12:47..

The West has already committed to supplying Ukraine with weapons and training. This is no different.

Maybe Russia will get lucky and eventually get those drones from Iran. LOL. How far the mighty have fallen.
