MiG-29 loses to the Russian Su-30: the Armed Forces told why F-16 fighters needed (video)

The Western Feries of the F series have undergone several stages of modernization - they are equipped with a new radar station and high -precision weapons. And on the old MiG-29 it is impossible to put modern missiles, says the spokesman of the APS of the Armed Forces Yuri Ignat. The Soviet MiG-29 fighter is not able to withstand the Russian Su-30, so the Armed Forces of Ukraine need the Western F-16.

The speaker of the Air Force Command (PS) of the Armed Forces Yuri Ignat on the air of the TV channel "We - Ukraine" said this on March 30. "The MiG-29 remained in the fourth generation, in 70-80 years (last century, ed. ). According to Ignati, in the framework of modernization in series F replaced onboard equipment and most importantly - a radar station. High -precision weapons were added to the aircraft.

Ukrainian pilots, as the Supreme Soviet of the Armed Forces said, in the first days of a full -scale invasion of Russia made impossible things. Two planes could attack 10 enemy fighters. "At the extremely low heights, the Armed Forces pilots threatened to the Russians, pushing them under our air defense systems. Thanks to such tactics, we could not destroy enemies.

We can constantly fight, because the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation have quantitative and technological benefits (in aviation - ed. )" Ignatius completed. The speaker is convinced that the potential of the PCS of Russia compared to the APS of the Armed Forces is higher than 5-6 times. However, the Armed Forces were able to destroy many modern aircraft of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in the first months of a full -scale invasion.

The MiG-29 fighters, which transmits the event, cannot be equipped with modern rockets, spoke Ignati on the air of a single TEMARFON on March 29. Much depends on the radar station and weapons that the aircraft carries - controlled plane, winged missiles, bombs and more. Polish and Slovak planes, he said, will be able to strengthen some of the Armed Forces, but not significantly, said a spokesman for the Air Force. The MiG-29 transmitted to Ukraine requires deep modernization, he added.
