The first group of six Ukrainian pilots completed the basic training in the UK. The pilots have begun training on F-16 fighter jets in Denmark, the press service of the Ministry of Defense of the United Kingdom reported on December 26.
The UK Ministry of Defense reported that “the first cohort of Ukrainian pilots to receive training from the Royal Air Force are now learning to fly F-16 fighter jets in Denmark, having completed a basic programme of training in the UK.”
The first Ukrainian group began receiving flying and language lessons in August. In less than six months, Ukrainian professionals learned English and are finally ready to approach precious F-16 fighters.
The second group of ten Ukrainian pilots continue the language training and “remain in the UK to continue with practical basic flight training, as well as to learn important skills such as aviation medicine and centrifuge training.”
Last week, the Netherlands announced that it was preparing to transfer the first batch of 18 F-16 to Ukraine, but clarified that all necessary documentation should be completed first, and the Ukrainian military should prepare air bases and a sufficient number of trained personnel.
Judging by public statements from various countries, the completion of at least a basic training course by Ukrainian pilots had not been announced by any other country. The British group, apparently, was the first. With such a speed of pilot training, Kiev is unlikely to deploy the first foreign fighters in the battles soon. Meanwhile, Russian strikes are destroying Ukrainian military infrastructure necessary for their operation. LINK
bolo by to zrejme veľké prekvapenie a spôsobilo by istotne aj veľké zdesenie, ak by náhodou jeden s týchto pilotov sa rozhodol prejsť na stranu rf. a samozrejme zobral by si pritom zo sebou na cestu aj jednu f-16. otázkou je ako robili výber.
just bought a new car. i keep getting confused cause my brain keeps thinking im in the old one and i still struggle with the gear change and light switch etc. the new car drives differently too. bloody awkward.
these 6 trainees will die quite easily. a full blown waste of time.
they can use the ejection seat or surrender lmao
unless it’s deactivated by the kiev koke kike of course….
one of his loyal subjects tried welding the cockpit shut and ended up shattering the canopy.
let the flying bradleys meet a similar fate to the rest of the ukrainian air force so far.
they learned as much english as the 9/11 pilots learned at flight school.
“just show me how to take off. forget about the landing lessons.”
there were no airplanes in ny ( just holograms on cnn), also not in the field and in the pentagon. wtc7 was controlled demolition. it was the new pearl harbor needed to invade the middle east and start the war profiteering. it was not coordinated by a man in a cave everybody understands that i hope. this was confirmed by the first expert talking on cnn who was never invited again. same as the first reporter arriving at the pentagon who said: this was not caused by an airplane.
oh stop it. i think your head has hollow grams in it.
i heard tell the nudelmans just tried a maidan-style overthrow in serbia because the russians asked vucic if they could have all his old s-75’s lying around so as not to waste s-300 or 400s on those flying antiques. s-75’s they said are perfect for the job.
should have learned spanglish instead, good luck ukronazi kamikaze.
my advice: take off, drop the bombs over the airport you just left, call volga 149.200, fly to russia.
we could have become transhumans (advanced humans), but you far-right nationalist luddites are simply too idiotic and obsessed with making wars, that is why we cannot see such a great and astonishing improvement in humanity, instead we see pointless wars. pathetic, shameless.
you’ve already achieved the transition huntress. you will still have the same chromosomes you had at birth though.
yes us transgender techno amerikan lgbt coward like middle hunter from colorado trailer park
banderites have to pass through the simian stage first before thinking about transhumanism
lol you have copy and pasted this bot message for several days now. now that’s pathetic and shameless indeed.
he thinks that right wingers are the ones making wars, george bush supported hillary clinton in 2016, that should tell you everything about mainstream establishment “right wingers”. and why is it that i always hear about leftists opposing transhumanism? you do realize that leftism is literally incompatible with human nature right? and why are you blaming right wing nationalists, you can’t advance society when your society is full of a bunch of stinking third worlders
95% of the us congress are daffier than daffy duck.
the demented baby faced boy skout is ranting again after his latest “trip” to looneyville
the ukraine pilots were taught english and they learned it so well they don’t even have a accent. there english is so good that they sound just like americans so there will be problem following us orders!
you’re a clever fellow
they had better pray they don’t get shot down and captured by russians, not because of their risk to life and limb, but because every russian will know what a political example putin will make of any western pilot (ostensibly an officer of a nato military) that is shot down and captured.
will they die? no, but probably end up in black dolphin with videos of them crying to their family who can’t help them, soldiers of western governments, do not fight russia.
so six ukros speak english now?
i am impressed 🇺🇦=🤡 😆😆😆
the ladies in kiev and odessa are already speaking english, maybe they can be trained
if this is true why have f16 been flying around belgium and holland’s air space since the 1 of august this year. i’ve been watching them on abs exchange but they weren’t flying before then very strange. they haven’t been flying about for at least the last 2 weeks ether.
they flew the coop and now in the hands of ukrainian poop
but the newspapers told us some years ago we had to buy new generation jets because f16s are outdated and junk. the 6 kamikaze pilots have to be brainwashed first otherwise we will see no action in the skies of donbass. also because they cannot use american pilots same as in yemen.
6 more ukie suicides using most incompetent jet ever invented—inferior to russian chinese french swedish only superior to germ jet designed by gay frankfurt germ
they learned two sentences in english. ‘i’m hit’ and ‘the eject button doesn’t work’.
cannon fodder with wings…what a joke…
i wonder. have these pilots learned the english phase ‘oh fuck!’?
excellent for live training in donbass. and all spectators kindly put your cameras in landscape mode so i can get something worthwhile back for my tax money.
when the “f-16 wunderwaffle$ are burned out, twisted bits of ussan garbage scattered on the poisoned steppes with chunks of grilled ukrapper shashlik pilot$, what will the brain-dead anglozionazi empire of s#it then chuck on the sputtering rump ukrapper dumpster fire? it’s all over apart for chosenite fatso nudelman, the evil maidan cookie monster, howling in desperation as she is hauled away to hell.
good news—maybe they can teach us hillbilly morons to learn english…56% amerikan adults cannot read above 6yh grade level, 69% us university graduates not english proficient per us dept of education
for someone who has no idea of the english language, it is probably difficult to learn the language and master it, with technical terms used in aviation, in combat conditions when the stress is high. also, flying normally with an airplane is one thing, to fly, to master it and execute combat maneuvers, during combat missions is another and this cannot be learned in 5-6 months. it takes a lot of training and flight hours to be able to fight effectively and efficiently with the plane.
i’m an old pilot, civil it’s true, but with many flight hours and a lot of flight experience.
pilots of rf have much more experience by now, have better jets and protect the motherland. kiev is toast.
ukronazis are just window dressing, western stooges will be flying the unmighty f16.
especially if the only recruits you can muster up only have lukewarm iqs
why train some fuckheads when hiring foreign pilots would be much more cost effective
