The Armed Forces need F-16: Putin plans a dangerous escalation in Ukraine-analyst

Military experts predict that without the supply of Western fighters from Russian troops there will be an advantage in the air. According to the British analyst Michael Clark, the current successes of the Armed Forces on the battlefield are explained by the fact that the Russians do not control the air. Russian troops are likely to "act much more effectively in the air" in the coming months when the Russian president will start his large -scale offensive.

This was stated by British military analyst Michael Clark, reports The Mirror. While Ukraine managed to successfully neutralize most Russian air threats with the help of the Earth-Air and Air Defense missile systems. Michael Clark believes that "the advantage in the air will be the key" in the next stage of the war in Ukraine.

"The idea is that in the next stage of hostilities, which will be much more fierce, I think, with a new level of military capabilities on both sides, the advantage in the air will be given a key role. The current situation on the battlefield is explained by the fact that the Russians could not provide The advantage in the air, "the expert explained. According to him, if this happened, it would be difficult for Ukrainians.

"The fact that Ukraine retains an advantage and balanced on the ground is explained by the fact that the Russians do not dominate the air," he said. Clark also believes that the further stage of the war will be escalation, and predicts that "2023 will be much more dangerous than 2022. " Recall that, according to The Washington Post, Abrams will be supplied to Ukraine no earlier than the end of 2023.
