Neither Air Force is spending a lot of time in hotly contested territory.
I suggest UKR AF is really just patrolling within the territory they control as a deterrent to Russian AF.
But neither spending a lot of time directly in each other's turf.
A bit sad UKR doesn't have better AA because Russia is flying a lot more sorties on their lines than they should be able to get away with. They are a bit too fast for MANPADs.
- greedo 4y agoThe RuAF is flying between 200-300 sorties a day, just not all over Ukraine where they'd get waxed by S300s. They're mostly flying in the Donbas, pretty much at the limits of the best SAMs Ukraine fields.
