Still, it would be nice to see some Stingers take out most of the Russian bomber fleet.

God help us, because the government certainly won’t.

So... yeah, more materiel and munitions in ready stocks, and more investment in security, (no more to Boeing please... anyone else than them) is desirable, but then the USA has a continued stench in the HoR and Senate that is a greater risk to global stability than anything that can be dreamt up in our heaven and earth,

Ecce Homo! Loquitur...
If Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine had succeeded in 2022, Ukraine's industries would have been seized and taken over by Russian oligarchs. A leaked document shows that oligarch Konstantin Malofeev intended to create a 'DMZ Concern' from Ukraine's largest plants. ⬇️

As Ukraine is fighting on their own soil there are good chances for an ejected pilot to live to fly another day.
Unfortunately they do not always make it.
The declining number of ac is often mentioned, but they need pilots as well. As training opportunities within Ukraine may be weak, how about those F16's and training abroad... just a thought.
