One of the most experienced American F-16 pilots, Dan Hampton, has declared his readiness to fight in the skies of Ukraine. Lieutenant Colonel Hampton (retired) has participated in wars in the Persian Gulf, the Balkans and Iraq, and has 151 combat missions under the call sign Two Dogs. He has proposed both a simple and a complex solution to the F-16 problem for Ukraine, suggesting that retired pilots with experience in piloting F-16s should be invited to fly them under conditions similar to those used by the International Legion in Ukraine. He has stated that there are many people who are willing to do this, and he is ready to be the first.
The main news for today is that Denmark has agreed to create a $1 billion fund to help Ukraine. This aid is intended to provide civilian, military and economic assistance to Ukraine.

Denmark will also send a new package of military aid to Ukraine totaling $140 million, which will include ammunition, anti-tank mines, and air defense missiles.

Austin also reiterated that the international coalition will help Ukraine with tanks, armored personnel carriers, and other armored vehicles, as well as training for the Ukrainian military on new weapons.
I am really surprised nobody seems to have noticed this. This is how the Russians play
Today was a successful day for our country and our defense on the international stage. We held the tenth meeting in the Ramstein format, where we discussed the provision of ammunition for our soldiers, artillery, tanks, and the protection of Ukrainian airspace. We have found solutions to these issues, which is especially important now as we feel the threat of Russian aggression intensifying. We must continue to increase the pressure on Russia, through defense, sanctions, and political and legal means, in order to restore our territorial integrity and international legal order. We are doing our best to make our partners aware of this and we must keep up the pressure. We must work together to defeat the occupier. I thank everyone who is helping to make this happen!
