That’s a suckers response for defending a partner nation who has invaded its neighbor to steal its lands while it indiscriminately murders, terrorizes and tortures the civilian populace. This ‘war’ is a direct result of Putins imperialistic desires, there’s no diplomatic resolve with a tyrant. Putin was coming for Ukraine regardless of what they did or said. His entire pretext for war was right out of Hitlers playbook with Poland.

Nothing prepares you for the death of your wingmen and the adrenaline of avoiding your own death under fire. There is no accurate way to predict how pilots who have never seen combat will react when their planes start falling from the sky, especially when 'all' your pilots are green. You can game it out all you want, that's just not reality.

Unfortunately for those green pilots, what Chinas provocative drills don't tell them, is that in a live fire exchange, the majority of those planes won't reach their targets and an even greater majority will not return to base. Got to love these 'leaders' who love to play games with their peoples lives to bolster their own fragile egos, eh Pooh Bear?...
