2/4 For nearly a decade, DC, London and other NATO capitals validated the need for next Gen fighters (#F35) on the tech advanced #S300/#S400 air defense threat - both present in the #Ukraine war.
3/4 hence, if politicians remained consistent, they’d argue the #F16 and other 4th Gen fighters are NOT tech advanced enough for the #Ukraine theater with S300/400, as it’s the same argument they used to spend billions to fund the #LightningII.
