At an airbase in Denmark, the Danish Air Force has been training six Ukrainian fighter pilots to fly the F-16 Fighting Falcon using the Danish, Norwegian, and Belgian Air Force fighter jets.
A coalition of NATO Allies, including Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands, and Norway, has agreed to donate their F-16s to the Ukrainian Air Force. As part of the deal, Danish instructors at Skrydstrup Air Base train Ukrainian pilots, technicians, and ground crew how to fly and maintain the F-16.
The Ukrainian pilots are praised for the F-16, noting its responsive controls and agile flight features.
Thanks for watching.
Hope you enjoy it !!

#ukrainewar #ukrainef16 #ukraineairforce #Russia panics: Ukrainian pilots ace F-16 training program - Věda a technologie
Putin must know his rhetoric is escalation on its own because Ukraine is not a nuclear power. He knows just because the F-16s are nuclear payload capable, does not mean Ukraine is capable. US or NATO would not re introduce nuclear capability with Ukrainians. Nuclear weapons are only limited to countries that have a nuclear weapons program. Nukes are not a weapon just handed out to every allies. That would be irresponsible. Unlike the Soviets that gave this technology to the Chinese and North Korea and has helped the India and Pakistan and is helping Iran to develop this technology.
Putin is using what excuses he wants to talk nukish...
Nonsense. The psychos in DC want a nuclear conflict any way they can get it.
Nukes are worthless in warfare - all it’s good for is propaganda of “I have a big stick”.
Things are catastrophic! whatever they need should be given to them!!! Right now they are fighting and dying for us!
Not sure Putin cares abotu that, he will continue to push the same narritive, the message is more for his allies.
I love the airforce man's name badge ' J DAM' 😂
That's certainly a bomb-ass name 😆 He definitely chose the right profession!

It's probably intentional. Why would they want to reveal his real identity to any russians? It wouldn't surprise me to see a "Hans Upp" ,

Thank you, Denmark! Setting a good example, don't you agree, Chancellor Scholz?
He is now stating that the _Taurus_ was discontinued so he can have an excuse not to send it... 🤬
Scholz is the biggest traitor in Europe..
@@duartesimoes508 Prawidlowo
Everyone rages about Germany not sending the Taurus missile, but it's not the only variant. The Storm Shadow and Scalp missiles sent by the British and French are the short range versions. Neither of these countries how allowed the long ranger version to go to Ukraine either. I note this because when you look at the second highest donor of military aid to Ukraine, it is Germany. When you look at all the words coming from Emmanuel Macron, one could be easily fooled into thinking he's ready to send the French army, and yet the French have sent so little and Macron even shamefully went to Putin's most recent inauguration.
@@duartesimoes508 There's an issue beyond that. The site a lot were stored in was found to have grown mould throughout the batch and there's a severe issue in that they may not launch off a wing or worse. However, see my other comment about the British and French options that are available.
It's my understanding that Ukraine may need to increase its standards when it comes to runway maintenance. The F-16 has quite an aggressive air intake.
That's why I thought the F18 was a better proposition... it can land on roads and highways etc... but hey, what do I know.
Yeah it's more of a problem with the low slung intake but good roads that have been swept for FOD can be used.
Its not like they will station them at the previously bombed airports near the Russian border, im sure they will be flying them from a well maintained airport somewhere deeper in Ukraine.
just needs to be clean. No gravel or loose asphalt.

at the beginning of the war, there were cases when a pair of Ukrainian fighters entered into battle against twelve fascist ones. losses of 3 fascist SU-35s (the rest fled from the battlefield), against 1 Ukrainian SU-27. And this is in an air battle, without air defense. Now fascist planes do not enter Ukrainian airspace. They throw bombs at a great distance from the front line.

Look at those beautiful birds.
That is naive. If those pilots would think this way they would die immediately. Nothing magical about the Vipers. Luckily those pilots are a bit smarter.
@@iloveaviation-burgerclub-a8145 Nothing even worth counting defends russian airspace. Single engine Cessna style drones penetrate close to 1000 miles of ruzzian airspace neatly to their oil refinery targets. Either russian air defense is nearly non existent or russian troops charged with air defense are drunk or stupid. Throw in F-16s and we'll see how they play.

Seems more likely that the F-16 will first replace the Su-24 as a missile truck for long range weapons such as Storm Shadow. The Su-24 are the oldest and least numerous fighters that Ukraine has in service.
After that, phasing out the Su-25 ground attack fighters would make sense because they are the most vulnerable and tactics can shift to somewhat longer ranges using glide bombs instead of rockets.
MiG-29 and Su-27 models that Ukraine has are dated but still serviceable in some roles. They tend to have more limited capabilities than the F-16 for beyond visual range air to air combat in particular but the Su-24 and Su-25 are much worse for air to air as they are designed almost entirely for ground attack. F-16, MiG-29, and Su-27 are all multirole fighters that can either be used for air to air or air to ground as needed.
F-16 will become their best fighter for both air to air and air to ground roles. The question is which role is in more urgent need of an upgrade for the most common missions. Most missions for fighters in modern fighter combat are air to ground.
The F-16s will also probably get some air to air kills but I suspect that this will just push Russian fighters to launch weapons from further away inside Russia, where it would be risky to chase them inside the Russian air defenses.
That plus it will play a role in air defence, intercepting cruise missiles
F16 cannot replace SU24’s because they ate unable to carry heavy weapons like SCALP missiles…as i known, the only light fighter able to carry it is the Mirage 2000…
@@leneanderthalien if that's the case, it would explain the recent purchase of around 80 soviet aircraft from Kazakhstan by the USA.
@@leneanderthalien also... I believe the Mirage was offered to Ukraine. I'm not sure why there's no news on that front
Russia’s air defense?? That is laughable considering how often and deep Ukraine has been able to strike into Russia. Ukraine has been shaping the battlefield to get ready for the f-16’s. They have been consistently hitting their air defenses.
Muita força Ucrânia 😊🙏

Thats its a must to help Ukrain. Now and in the future.
Slava Ukrain.
Now for the A10 Warthogs ....
Obsolete rubbish. They are effective against lightly armed militia that have no air defence . That will not be the situation in Ukraine. They A10 will get nowhere near their target
@@user-ft2bt9kw7xas we have seen in the last conflicts? With air superiority A-10 is both, a tactical and a psychological asset.
@@iloveaviation-burgerclub-a8145 it is obsolete. Against advanced air defence it will not survive . Good against the Taliban not against peer powers. “ The last conflicts “ against weak enemies who didn’t have air defences . Against a peer power you may not get air superiority
@@user-ft2bt9kw7x only obsolete to you bozo. Plus we just upgraded it, new radars, flight controls, everything, its a new bird in an oldr body style.
@@user-ft2bt9kw7x Probably not what the Russian tank crew will be thinking when the 30mm depleted uranium rounds start coming in!
Remember that, prior to the collapse of the USSR, nuclear weapons were stored in Ukraine. In order to coerce Ukraine to have these weapons removed, the Budapest Memorandum which "prohibited Russia, the United States and the United Kingdom from threatening or using military force or economic coercion against Ukraine". As usual, Russia totally ignored the agreement.
And nato totally ignored the promise not to expand eastward.
@@SamHolmes-mw3qx No agreement was ever signed about eastward expansion. Russia however did sign off on the Budapest Memorandum.

@@scooby0000so why has Russia not been able to achieve air superiority over Ukraine in over 2 years despite having a far larger air force, far greater numbers of SAM systems while fighting against older Soviet era aircraft? 🤣😁😆
If they fight in a wolf pack, they will be masters of the sky.
They must support each other. The Russian will not have a chance.
F-16s, are team jets, not one on one fighter’s.
Anyone can fly one,
Like sports World Cup, it takes time to be part of a team.
Keep dreaming 🛌
And, Russia ALREADY has airframes and missile launchers capable of tactical nuclear weapons. So, it’s ok for them, but not for Ukraine. THAT would be an “escalation”. Stop whining, Russia. If you don’t like the war, GO HOME.

I think that a better idea would be for the western governments to make it known that they will not persecute any of their retired pilots and ground crew who would form "volunteer squadrons" modeled on the "Flying Tigers" in WWII and the various other volunteer squadrons in WWI and II. They would form the core of the new squadrons, providing experience and and mentoring and guidance for the new Ukrainian pilots.
The russian planes can be modified to carry western weapons, but they do not have the electronics to support the full functionality, the full feature sets, of those weapons! The F-16 does.

It's a new platform adaptation, the pilots are already experienced on others. Not really the same, but it's the most closer we can get when changing airframes.
As an avid Flight sim addict for 30+ years, the F-16 is still a thing of beauty, form & function. Not saying that the Su-27 and its derivatives are not a graceful, bird to look at, also a great airframe worthy of acclaim. Just not user-friendly.

what about ground crew and weapons techs and like .. who trains them ... I heard somewhere that the ratio btw pilot and support crew for the plane is at least 1:20 . And for a ground crew a whole lot less people can speak english or other languages to be trained easily ... that is going to ba a monumental tasks. Without sufficient ground support the planes are no more than expensive "meta;l"
watch the film again. ground crew was mentioned.
you think seriously, that you just remembered something that seasoned generals would not already have factored in?

Yep, that’s on a “need to know” basis.
@@lowdrag82 Absolutely! I had both NATO and US Top, but everything, as you said was “on a need to know” basis.
If or if not there is no need to discuss this because of kremlins frightened blah. Subs and ICBMs are always ready to counter. So this Putin guy is just desperately trying to frighten us. But he is the frightened.
They are capable of carrying either a B61 nuclear bomb or a B83 nuclear bomb.

Im from Denmark, and its ok they have these airplanes. Even when we actually need them by ourself. But are we also stuck with the supply to these planes. Rockets and bullets cost extreamly, and Ukraine dont think of cost. They just firing and firing and firing. And the Denmark is bankrupt.
Utter BS to emphasize the capability to carry nukes. These aircraft are nothing else than one additional element of Ukrainian self-defense.
Перемога України!!!
'Gamechanger'!? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
suerte piloto ucraniano
I have to question the general’s take that those Danish F-16s are competitive to the most current combat aircraft. Those were Block 20/30 air frames, even with upgrades. There’s a reason why Denmark ordered and received F-35s.
While the F-16 is superior to the F-35 in BFM. The current Danish F-16s are lack the avionics, EW suite & BVR capabilities of the F-35. As such, the F-35 is replacing their F-16s and this allows Denmark to give them for free to Ukraine.
Now, I don’t see a time when anyone will give Ukraine free F-16V Block 70s. The most current, modern F-16. Superior radar, long range, better avionics, etc.
Most weapons can be fitted with nuclear warheads. Most of the old Soviet aircraft could be as well. The Su-24, Su-27 and Mig-29 are nuclear capable.
Hoff kommen fix zum Einsatz in der Ukraine 👍

@@joshenarvidsano9976 Well.....the other jets have drop tanks AND weapons and they didn't use afterburner either. I was just wondering if that is standard procedure.
I am no expert but the F16 is an engine with wings so it should have no problems taking of without afterburner. Somethines they have unresticted climp, meaning full throttle take of and sometimes they dont.
@@joshenarvidsano9976 Yes, we just saw it takeoff without afterburner.....so it definitely can do it. :)
Likely just no need for extra power and wear on the aircraft in a training scenario. They also may want to keep noise levels down for the civilians nearby.
