General Skshipchak: The Russian Armed Forces have set the task of destroying all airfields in Ukraine
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] The Russian military has set the task of destroying all airfields in Ukraine so that the aircraft that the West plans to transfer to it have nowhere to be based, former commander of the Polish ground forces, General Waldemar Skrzypczak, said on April 26 on the radio station RMF FM.

“The Russians have an advantage in the air. Firstly, because they greatly weakened the air defense of the Ukrainian army. Secondly, the Ukrainians do not have their own air forces capable of resisting the Russian Aerospace Forces,” he pointed out.

Moreover, the Polish military man added, the Russian military has set itself the task of destroying all Ukrainian airfields so that the planes that will be donated to Ukraine have nowhere to be based.

As Regnum reported, on April 26, US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, before the start of a meeting of the contact group on providing assistance to Ukraine, confirmed that deliveries of F-16 fighters to the Kiev regime will begin in 2024. According to him, deliveries will be carried out together with pilots and maintenance personnel trained by members of the contact group.

At the same time, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg admitted that F-16 fighters will not be able to become a “silver bullet” for Ukraine in the conflict with Russia and will not turn the situation in the combat zone in favor of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

The Russian armed forces will easily destroy the F-16 fighters stationed at Ukrainian airfields, says German journalist Julian Röpke. In his opinion, the supply of any number of fighters without creating effective air defense on the territory of Ukraine makes no sense.

Russian President Vladimir Putin, during a conversation with military pilots, noted that American F-16 fighters will not change the combat situation in the Northern Military District zone if they are transferred to Kiev. They will be mercilessly destroyed, like other Western equipment of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the head of state emphasized.
