EUA entregam F-16s à Ucrânia pela primeira vez, foi anunciado como eles serão usados ​​contra os ...

The United States has shipped deactivated F‑16 fighter jets to Ukraine, which can only serve as spare‑parts donors. Images show the aircraft partially disassembled—missing wings, tail, engines—being loaded onto a Ukrainian An‑124 transport plane in Tucson, Arizona, and flown to Rzeszów‑Jasionka in Poland, a Western military aid hub. The U.S. Air Force confirmed that the jets are inoperable and cannot be restored to flight status due to missing critical components such as engines or radar. While the jets were intended for Ukraine, there was speculation they might have been destined for Poland for training or parts. U.S. European Command commander General Christopher Cavoli noted that Ukraine already operates F‑16s and pilots, and that additional U.S. F‑16s are being prepared for deployment, though most have come from Northern European partners.
