A rather complex element of training: Ignat about the new tactics of the Russians in the air

The tactics of the Russian occupiers to refuel fighter jets in the air can affect the duration of air alarms in our country. However, the Russians may practice elements of pilot training.

This was announced by Air Force Spokesman Yuriy Ignat during the joint telethon.

"Refueling tactics... maybe they increase the duration of flights, maybe they work out such elements of pilot training... How it happens: a hose is obtained, fuel is transferred under pressure from one aircraft to another, it's quite a complex element of preparation... Regarding tactics, we see constant aviation activity. They are using a lot of aviation weapons now: the X-59, X-35, X-31 missiles, and also guided aerial bombs. This is what flies in large quantities and causes serious damage to our front lines. That's precisely what we have to combat. We know how to combat it - with the F-16... We eagerly await the moment when our pilots acquire that knowledge," shared Ignat.
