American F-16 fighters, if they appear on the battlefield, will have no effect on the progress of the special operation, since they will not be able to defeat Russian air defense systems. This was told by former F-16 pilot John Venable.
He said that these fighters would not help the Ukrainian Air Force, because the RF Armed Forces air defense system would easily “outwit” them. URA.RU writes about this.
“Supplying F-16 fighters to Ukraine will not affect the course of hostilities or increase the likelihood of a positive outcome of the counteroffensive,” the pilot told Business Insider.
He added that the F-16 does not have a stealth function, and in conditions of increased danger they are completely inferior to the Russian C-400 systems.

It is important to release them in order to move the armed forces. The retired senior lieutenant of the DPR people’s militia, Alexander Matyushin, announced this.
