The Ukraine Air War - The Russian campaign & does Ukraine need Western jets?

Sponsored by Private Internet Access: https://www.piavpn.com/Perun Before the war, the Russian Government had poured significant sums into the modernisation of its air-force, acquiring hundreds of new aircraft, deploying new weapon systems and testing the force over Syria. In Ukraine, the VKS has found itself as the stronger party, but none the less held off by Ukrainian air defences and fighters and incapable of delivering decisive support for ground forces. In this episode we look at the air war (building on previous discussions of ground based air defences and helicopters) and also at one of the most contentious issues for Western nations supporting Ukraine - whether UA needs (and should receive) Western built aircraft. Patreon:   / perunau   Caveats & Comments: As always - caveats around the fog of war apply - particularly in relation to an area of warfare as traditionally associated with overclaiming or duelling narratives as air combat. Where possible I have used up to date data - but reporting from the front on changing sortie rates and tactics is (obviously) inconsistent and observations may not be reflective of current state I also note that many old RU MoD publications and pages have become inaccessible in recent months/years - in these cases I can rely on tools include internet archives or contemporaneous secondary publications Sources and reading: Thanks to those who contributed on background to the creation of this episode The Russian Air War and Ukrainian Requirements for Air Defence https://rusi.org/explore-our-research...
