Just... how? You will talk about politics, but how are French and Swedish politics any less fucked up?Good choice,but Gripen for Poland is still better.
About working from roads,when airfields are destroyed.And that would happen,when another Democrat would sell us to Moscov,and they attack us with german idiots.Just... how? You will talk about politics, but how are French and Swedish politics any less fucked up?
Most other planes can do it too, while being better in many other ways. By your logic we should go back to prop planes because they don't even need a road, just dirt.About working from roads,when airfields are destroyed.
So you would rather be sold by French or Swedes, ok.And that would happen,when another Democrat would sell us to Moscov,and they attack us with german idiots.
1.F18 and some F35 variants - yes.F16 and F15 - noMost other planes can do it too, while being better in many other ways. By your logic we should go back to prop planes because they don't even need a road, just dirt.

F-16 we already have logistics for and contrary to some rumors it can work from highways.1.F18 and some F35 variants - yes.F16 and F15 - no
Which means they can be threatened or bribed more easily. Look at how France took few months of delay before they supplied anything meaningful to Ukraine.2. You do not read my post,or do not undarstandt it.USA are only reason why kgb do not attacked us yet,when France and Sweden do not have army strong enough to defend themselves.
Thus USA could sell us to Moscov,becouse they hhave power to help us,too.
When both France and Sweden lost their power long ago.
Slovakia has been making some purchases recently. Most notably a Barak Medium Range Air Defense System from Israel, thirty six Piorun MANPADs from Poland and five thousand Colt M4A1 Assault Carbines WITH ACCESSORIES from the United States of America.
The Barak MX was developed alongside the Barak 8 with assistance from India but the MX system is Israeli designed so they can tailor it for other countries export requirements. The MX system has recently been purchased by Colombia and Morocco with other countries ranging from Finland to the UAE and Vietnam expressing interest in the system.
That's a very interesting combo of equipment. Why so diverse?
Now I think if I was the current or previous gov of SVK I would have gone with the latest IMI TAVOR or the MSBS Grot B.The M4's I'm guessing will go to elite and special forces style units. Probably just diversify away from all of the Czech stuff they currently use.
Don't F-16s have issues with narrow and very lightly built landing gear? Meaning you can use them from highways, but watch out for accident rate... there is a reason why that is called "first F-16 highway strip landing ever".F-16 we already have logistics for and contrary to some rumors it can work from highways.
In fact out own air force trains that.
First in Poland.Don't F-16s have issues with narrow and very lightly built landing gear? Meaning you can use them from highways, but watch out for accident rate... there is a reason why that is called "first F-16 highway strip landing ever".
1.Gripen is still better in that regardF-16 we already have logistics for and contrary to some rumors it can work from highways.

First Highway Strip Landing in Poland Since 2 Decades
Division General, Pilot Ireneusz Nowak, the Air Force Inspector, landed the F-16C MRCA at the Wielbark highway strip - announced General Wiesław Kukuła via his X (formerly Twitter) account. This event has been a part of a highway strip exercise, the first one in 2 decades.defence24.com
Which means they can be threatened or bribed more easily. Look at how France took few months of delay before they supplied anything meaningful to Ukraine.
But its worse in other regards, some not fixable, like the logistics of not being the most common western fighter in the world, and some fixable at great cost (see: fully modernized Gripen price), at which point the option to get more F-35's becomes attractive. Some people think that might be cheaper, holy fuck.1.Gripen is still better in that regard
It's not that hard to imagine why they didn't want to fight World War 2.5.2.Sweden and France could be bribed,but USA lead by Democrats would gave us for notching,like FDR and Truman.
Again with your wild guesses.And,considering that deep state faked one election there,i except Democrats ruling to the end of USA.Would be 2040 ,i quess.
Considering how Republicans apparently sabotaged Trump... it is not long until Uniparty is official.Again with your wild guesses.
