F-16s' are being manufactured by the same company that makes Barbie Dolls hahaha!
DEI pilots get confused easily.
πππ crushed?
Another paper horse from USA πππ
Bigger embarrassment for Putin in Kursk!πππ
0ld trash ππππhahahaahahahaha hahahaahahahaha
Western Media can lies .. S400 system is really working π π π
Ukr is a country of jokes and comedy
Lying about the whole incident is an insult to the pilot who lost his life as well as his family. Why don't they accept that it was hit by a missile when it's obvious?
Putin is a coward bully. Putin murders anyone brave enough to speak up. No country did anything to Russia. Russia started what may yet become a full on nuclear world war three. Russians are lied to on Putin controlled Russian TV to be obedient nationalists. Or else. Russian rising inflation is eroding Russians savings. Putin is a failure. Over 600,000 Russians already dead or disabled. All for nothing.
Itβs impossible that the Pilot donβt have time to eject out π₯΄ Before the Crash.. Sounds Funny .
If Ukraine fired a patroit missile at the f16, than dont call that a pilot error, it was a Ukraine error.
It is not Ukrainian but NATO pilots who fly the highly technical, extremely sophisticated F-16s. NATO is active on Ukrainian territory with soldiers, military pilots, advice, training, assignment of enemy targets for medium-range missiles, reconnaissance and strategic concepts on site.
Shot down not crashed!!bulshit!

The issue isn't with the F-16s; it's with the pilot. And apparently, Zelensky's top gun pilot is at the center of it.
I am sure it was shot down. Form what I understand, and I may be wrong, These thing have ejector seats.
Another waste of the American taxpayers' money!
Ukraine loses a jet,,,Russia loses a chunk of its land,fair trade off.
π Americans are very quick to respond on behalf of Arms lobby. We know it was hit by Russian missiles.
Russia shot down the F-16
it was in Russia not in Ukraine. This is such π© news π€£
Failure can cost some!
And Russia hasnβt been embarrassed. Pathetic!
Un solo aereo distrutto e i Russi si esaltano dopo 600.000 Russi morti da inizio invasione. Solo notizie false.
Why doesn't Zelensky train to pilot the F-16, if he is so dedicated to the war for his people?
Ahaβπ€π€
Were it technical failure or human error, the pilot could have bailed out, as is the norm.
Even the "friendly fire" from a Patriot fails to convince.
C'mon, silly lil zelly, your chances & days have run out of time.
U.S. needs to get out of its damn foolishness around the world. It's like we've gone totally insane. Socrates said
ALL wars are about money in some way, and take away all of this free money and it would be like rats leaving a
sinking ship. Counterproductive to the good of the U.S. As many other Western nations, we have been taken
over by our servants. The servants now run the house. it's all about a few lords and masters making someone else's money, kids. Nothing else.

You have no idea what happened so shut your pie hole. I know you will delete this post, cause you only want brain dead pootin sycophants here, but screw you zippy. We have seen what absolute crap ruzzian weapons are, what happened to their 4 day war? I guess the russkies didn't get to wear their parade uniforms as they marched victoriously through Kiev.
Go weep suckers, ruzzia is finished , next stop third world country begging for scraps, and the West pissing on them!
The long-obsolete, modified F-16 that flies high and falls low! Who flies hight, lands low! (ΠΠ΄Π°Π²Π½ΠΎ Π·Π°ΡΡΠ°ΡΠ΅Π»ΠΈ, ΠΌΠΎΠ΄ΠΈΡΠΈΠΊΠΎΠ²Π°Π½ΠΈ Π»ΠΎΠ²Π°Ρ Π€-16 ΠΊΠΎΡΠΈ Π²ΠΈΡΠΎΠΊΠΎ Π»Π΅ΡΠΈ, Π½ΠΈΡΠΊΠΎ ΠΏΠ°Π΄Π°! ΠΠΎ Π²ΠΈΡΠΎΠΊΠΎ Π»Π΅ΡΠΈ, Π½ΠΈΡΠΊΠΎ ΡΠΏΡΡΡΠ°!)
Bullshit news
Russia needs four years to train a fighter pilot. For the Ukrainian pilot it is insufficient training
Foolish people will always be embarrassed
Running out of fuel
Runing out of good weather
Running out of equipment
Running out of men
Running out of support
In a word Popkin and Russia are FUCKED !! just don`t know it yet!
US F16 could fall down without any ennemy intervention. But it falls furtively.
GREENski embarrassed? Yeah, RIGHT. Ask half a million dead Ukranian soldiers !
stop lies; corrupt king of cocaine zelensky SOLD this jet like another weapons…
and 700000 dead is OK?
Yes, war can be confusing. Nobody's fault.

Alibi is the weakest defense. The truth, F-16 was hit by a barrage of Russian missiles.
UKRAINIANS ARE NOT DYING FOR THEIR NATION BUT FOR WESTERN POLITICAL ELITES
How unfeeling & deeply cynical do you have to be to preserve yourself from a deserved humiliation at the cost of thousands of Ukrainian lives?
There is no silver bullet that the Ukrainian regime can use to drive the Russian military back, there is no game-changing weapon that will achieve this for it. When the F16s fail to make any perceptible differences this must surely be finally a settled matter. The progress of the Russian army will continue as it has done for the past two years and more, grinding down Ukrainian resistance, taking hamlets, villages, towns and cities, demilitarizing and denazifying Ukraine as it moves inexorably forward ensuring the safety of the Russian-speaking population of eastern Ukraine and ensuring that Ukraine never joins NATO.
What possible outcome other than the above is conceivable? Only if one thinks in apocalyptic terms of all out war between Russia and NATO or Russia and the USA, for that is what would be the expected outcome if the war was to be expanded out of Ukraine. The almost inevitable nuclear conflagration at that point does not bear thinking about. So, what chance is there for the victory that Zelensky holds out for along with his western sponsors? Precisely no hope whatsoever. As soon as the western plan to cripple Russia with sanctions while supplying Ukraine with near unlimited money and weapons failed to do anything but strengthen both Russiaβs economy and resolve a decision should have been made then and there to settle.
A peace settlement was just about there in Istanbul in March-April 2022. Unless it was simply a ruse to blindside Russia as the Minsk Accord process was, peace was there for the making. The western powers, mainly its two most aggressive members, the USA and UK, pushed for war instead, and got it. Ever since that deeply cynical decision they have doubled down instead of settling every step of the way. Even knowing it was impossible for Russia to let NATO be on its doorstep and modern day Ukrainian Nazis torture their Russian-speaking family in the Donbass, the western powers set their face against compromise. They would fight Russia to the last Ukrainian.
With China, India, Brazil, Saudi Arabia and many otters happy to continue trading with Russia and maintaining friendly relations the western powers should have recognised their plans for Russia would come to nothing. This was confirmed also when due to expert handling of the situation Russia actually profited from the sanctions regime that the US, UK and EU attempted to impose upon it. This was a double whammy for those powers. Yet would they recognise they were onto a losing bet? They would not. Like a desperate gambler who has lost big in the casino they simply kept on doubling down.
Now, with the last few throws of the dice, the F16s and a pointless and ultimately counter-productive incursion by the Ukrainian army into Russiaβs Kursk region, the metaphorical casinoβs management are about to give the western powers the bumβs rush. Yet the well-heeled and cosseted politicians of the West have many ways to escape the humiliation they richly deserve. Like Blair and bush after the Iraq debacle they will manage to voice some weasel words, write their memoirs and more or less retire into semi-obscurity. The blood on their hands will be antiseptically removed, no one in tier circles will mention Ukraine again, they will practice their smiles, crack a few jokes and pretend the whole thing never happened.
Over in whatβs left of Ukraine with a decimated population, a destroyed economy and a traumatized majority vainly trying to earn a crust or else seeking to escape its borders, there will be few smiles and certainly no back-slapping to match that which the guilty in the West continue to receive. With tens of thousands comprised of walking wounded, with one in five families having experienced a bereavement and a whole generation of young men lost, what kind of an existence will people have there? Will there be champagne parties as the elites of Washington will continue to enjoy? Hardly. The people will be unable to forget unlike the designer-suited mass murderers of Washington, Whitehall and Brussels. The vast flag-strewn graveyards the western elites bequeathed them wonβt let them.
