#UKRAINIAN PILOTS HAVE REWORKED F-16 TACTICS FOR WAR WITH #RUSSIA: One of the first Ukrainian F-16 pilots stated that Western training did not correspond to the realities of war with Russia, so pilots had to develop their own combat tactics. https://www.businessinsider.com/ukraine-f16-pilot-different-type-war-nato-training-encountered-reality-2026-1
