The RCAF's Next Generation Fighter (CF-188 Replacement)

The Ukrainians are looking forward to the Gripens...


This is how Ukraine’s F-16s hide from Russian drones​

Ukraine’s F-16s operate from night from small airstrips while under constant threat of Russian attack. Despite this, they’re surviving.


It's not for no reason Kyiv wants the Swedish Gripen. To avoid Russian bombardment that could wipe out its roughly 125 surviving fighters, the Ukrainian air force splits its flying brigades into small teams that travel by truck to airstrips and even lengths of highway all across central and western Ukraine.

RCAF just did an exercise in Latvia back in September honing that very skill, using highways for takeoff and landing.
