[QUOTE="Amiga500, post: 1192917, member: 56767"] Might as well say it now - F-16s are great. But with the Russian SAM network giving significant coverage over Ukraine itself, their ability to deny airspace will be limited - which unfortunately may not stop the Su-34s and their big glide bombs. Apparently they are getting Saab Gripens too in the near future, and they can carry Meteor. Which will have far longer range than an AMRAAM D when fired at low altitude (which they'll probably have to operate at to avoid SAMs like S-300 and S-400). [/QUOTE]
