a tax increase in ukraine and not (0800-211-382). all calls to these numbers are free, vote at the end of the program, we will sum up the results of this vote. we have our first guest on the phone, this is roman kostenko, people's deputy of ukraine, secretary of the parliamentary committee on national security, defense and intelligence, sbu colonel, sir. colonel, i congratulate you, thank you for joining our broadcast, i wish you health, i wish you, sir, mr. colonel, today there was information that in ukraine... the first f-16 aircraft appeared and even some of the public, i already mentioned before the broadcast, have already published some kind of photo, they say, these fighter jets are already in the sky over odesa, do you know whether these planes are already in ukraine, or is this a military secret and it can be made public only

after how these planes will be used in the russian-ukrainian war. look, this indeed, information that is under the sin of secrecy, and let's put it this way, i would not like to answer this information, there, let these official answers be given by our supreme commander-in-chief or representatives of the air force, and confirm or deny this information. before that , information appeared, mr. colonel, that ukraine would receive no more than 10-12 fighter jets by the end of the year. or in the f-16, this is due to the fact that only 24 pilots were trained to fly the f-16, and they say that there are two pilots for each aircraft according to technology, and since there are not enough of these pilots, ukraine will not receive more planes. what are ukraine's current needs for

f-16 aircraft, i.e. how many aircraft do we need in order to use them to the maximum extent for e.g. to oppose the russian federation? well here, you see, it is probably not how much that sometimes plays a role, how quality plays, if we say how many planes we need of the old modification, well, they are more suitable for combating air targets, very well suited for combating shahedim, and let's say, this fact, and... there with cruise missiles, but if it is an old modification, then they are very vulnerable to russian air defense and to russian aviation, if they are them, well, if we try to cover it with them, support our troops, because there the old modification has weak radars, which, in order to

to give an impression, you have to fly very close to the front line, and the russian planes are modern, they... have better radars and of course they will hit the f-16, so that we understand that after all, when we talk about modern f-16 planes, which we want to get let's put it this way, which ones we trained pilots on, it is generally a model of the 70s, and they are of various modifications, there are older ones, and there are the newest ones, which there is an unchanged module that already allows it, the newest one, allows you to resist or be on par with airplanes. precisely by russian ones, so the question here is that even if we have, for example, 100 planes with old modules, they will allow us to close the sky and maintain parity in the air somewhere in certain directions, for example, on the territory of ukraine, or strike somewhere with limited support

troops on the battlefield, from some distance, if they are, let's say, more modern versions, this is different. quite a direction, this is the securing of our advanced positions from the cabs, which are now dominated by the russian federation, with the help of which it succeeds there in some directions, this is a completely different schedule, this is an impression on, say, targets on the territory of the russian federation , including, well, a plus a big role is still played by the range of weapons that will be transferred or transferred together with ee... with aircraft, this is also of great importance, well, plus them, the survivability of these planes, we understand that russia has cruise missiles that, in principle, cover all our airfields, and if they hit any bunker, even a modern one, in principle there are 500 kg of explosives , for example, in caliber or in

iskander, they allow you to destroy any aircraft that is, well, in such a shelter there in the hangar, even there is a large concrete. that is why there is also a question, if there are hundreds of them there, there will be an important question, which is to disperse them in this way and cover the airfields in order to so that the russians don't give the impression there to use the same roads to raise them, which are adapted for this, that is , a lot of challenges, of course it would be better if our partners would allow us somewhere for our planes to be, for example, so here the question is exactly the armed forces and air... forces will look at how many of them are handed over to us, how many of them we can accept, where they can defend themselves, when we need them, what tasks they should be involved in, so that in one battle there does not disappear combat capability there our county on deter the enemy, because the enemy, at the moment, no matter how much they give us, we will not increase it quickly, because you said correctly, there are not

enough pilots trained and there are not so many military bases in europe there and in the world that can quickly train pilots, and russia already has an advantage in modern aircraft, su-34, su-35, 31, they already exist and they are already working with them, so we will gradually build up, say that they will come there now in... such and we immediately get an advantage in the air, it is not, but in this direction it is necessary to move at least to parity, so that russia does not feel so free on the line of confrontation and, of course , the issue of protecting our skies from massive strikes by shaheds, as they were intended, or cruise missiles. well, by the way, the wall street journal, in parallel with bloomberg's information, writes that the united states of america will arm itself. f-16, which will be delivered to ukraine by american missiles, according to them, citing their unnamed sources, but they cite sources, it is about

air-to-ground missiles, air-to-air missiles, high-precision kits guidance for bombs and small-diameter bombs, these weapons can be used on the territory of the russian federation, as the wall street journal writes, in response to attacks from abroad, you already mentioned, colonel, about a massive... attack by attack drones at night on july 31, this was not the biggest mass attack in the last six months, the last one, well , in particular, it was in kyiv on the night of january 1 , 2024, 89 drones that night, attack drones, one kh-59 missile was shot down by our defenders, in what way ... to achieve this efficiency, in terms of shooting down attack drones, er, er, let's say this,

by the organized systematic work of all means and the planning of all our air defense means that are and are coming into service with our country. well, the f-16 wasn't in the air yet. that's what i understood, because it seems that we have some kind of super weapon that allowed 89 drones, the ones that were launched, they were all shot down, we are working well, you see, we are learning, i hope that this is the answer to the question of why, why so, did everything happen, or should we expect that parallel to how it was yesterday the russians launched strike drones and were testing their strategic aircraft, long-range strategic aircraft, but which was not involved in the strikes on ukrainian territory, that

in the next few days we will see some kind of combined attack on ukraine, and these strategic bombers were being tested in order to strike even more heavily on the territory ukrainian state. yes, this is a tactic of the russians, with the help of the shaheds, they try to detect our air defense equipment, when the shaheds fly, that’s where it starts, well, it’s a military system, let’s put it this way, the technical system works, they look at where our radars are working, where our anti-aircraft defenses are being activated, they notice for themselves there with the help of special special means . themselves in order to then deliver more massive strikes, and even more, let's say that, with cruise missiles that are expensive there, or let's say ballistic ones, well, i don't know what

they will do after this massive strike, after, well, they were practically all the shaheds were successfully shot down, and here is a big thanks to our, shall we say, air force to the forces, eh, that they worked out so comprehensively, and now... will russia launch a missile strike in the near future, i think they will think carefully, first of all, but we have to expect this, it will depend on what data they took during the period when these strikes were carried out, when we were destroying, how they looked at the deployment, how they assessed its capabilities of our air defense, and now it will follow from this what decision they will make, or strike, that they are able to pass our forces there air defense by other routes, or they will... do something to make it to exhaust the rockets there to achieve their goals, it will already depend on their planning and on the conclusions they made, but i will say again, we have worked quite successfully, i

think they will have... something to think about. mr. colonel, let's talk about what the situation is around the time gap, and also at the front in general, since most military experts are talking about a creeping offensive of the russians. head of the press service of the 26th artillery brigade named after general guard roman dashkevich, oleg kalashnikov reported on espresso about stressful situation half'. the night flank of a temporary ravine, but, as he says, there is no direct threat to the surroundings of the city, as of today the enemy does not seem to be able to carry out these plans, these are his very first plans, when he was just starting the offensive at the time, he had such a desire to really go in from the flanks, to take

the city under fire control in... the valley, but he did not succeed and he was forced to storm the city of vlog. today, he continues to carry out exactly this plan, but to say that he can surround time from the flank and take it in such a way, it would not be untrue. mr. colonel, how do you assess the situation of the development of events at the front, will it be a continuation of... the creeping, creeping offensive of the russians, or can the nature of hostilities change? well, it will again depend on, first, on the decision of the russians on their further actions, now it is strategic for them, we have already talked about it many times, the decision is not has changed, this is taking full control of the donetsk and luhansk regions, that is why they are now throwing these resources in order to gradually, as we see, in one

direction or another they are trying to simply... the direction of toretsk, the direction of pokrovsk, and the enemy is trying to advance there, this creeping offensives, there really is nothing strategic there, i see a build-up there with a force of five people, they attack ten, somewhere there are several units of equipment, there are no such mass attacks by battalions, but... artillery is widely used, the advantage in which they have enough, the same cabs, planes, as we said, striking our territory, our forward positions, drones are also used en masse, but er, let’s say, it advances there by 100-200 m, but our defenders they inflict, well, let's say, very heavy losses, there are sometimes one to three to four, if proportionally, then... well, they

bear really heavy losses, well, we have the advantage that we are on the defensive, they have the advantage , of course, that they have a much larger variety of armed artillery and aviation, they can afford and use, chaotically, as much as they need, that is why the donetsk direction is the most difficult, and of course there now, let's say, all the attention of our leadership of the country's army is focused on... on the zaporizhzhia direction, there, in principle, such a verniiv direction, what i can see from the summary, the enemy practically did not attack her, well, did not attack, only the most active there, if we take the porizh direction, this is the robotino salient, where the enemy there conducts such offensive actions, active actions, trying to return the lost position, there to dislodge our defenders. this is

what concerns the quieter direction, because the enemy, well, relatively, yes, we are now, if we compare it with donbass, and the kherson direction, here, let’s say, again, the specifics, the river, there are the remains of the bridgeheads on the left bank, but the basis is now artillery duels and combat operations on the islands located between the right and left banks of the dnieper, where, by the way... the enemy is advancing little by little, trying to capture all the islands, take them under control, and if he does it, well then may be the threat that, theoretically, the enemy can create a mirror, well, try to create platforms somewhere on our territory in the area.
