The irony is that Ukraine with limited western weapons is going year 3 and counting
No ,its not complicated ,
You are forgetting that Ukrainian forces were nearly depleted
Step 1 was the initial strike on Dzhankoi against Russian air power
Step 2 is resupply forces and stabilize the situation on the front line
Once thats done, they will starting planning to strike for maximum effectiveness both tactically and strategically
in their shoes
The Kerch Bridge for obvious reasons, fuel and munition depots , command and control, and more strikes against air fields
The number of ATACMS delivered is estimated at 100-200 missiles at most so they are kinda limited to a degree
Lastly
Ukraine has operated mainly Russia weapons
so going cold turkey on Russian weapons to Western has been a challenge
Ukraine wont have true offensive power till they have at least 12 F-16s operational
Unlike Ukraines' Russian aircraft , The F-16 is what is exactly needed
For air to ground, the F-16 can use 500lbs, 1000lbs and 2000lbs laser guided bombs which immune to EW
While MIG-29s can only use the AGM-88 in limited modes, the F-16 can fully use it , specially the F-16 can hunt and destroy EW sites allowing GPS munitions to be usable again
The F-16 can also use the Harpoon ASM for anti ship attacks against Russians' frigates
Russian fanboys are quick to say the F-16 is no match for the Su-35 or S-400
New flash, The F-16 doesnt need to be
Ukraine has been striking S-300 and S-400 sites but mostly importantly after 2 were blow out of the sky, A-50s are no longer operational
So the Russian air force ability to engage F-16s is already knocked out
a smart Ukrainian play would play here kitty and have F-16s act as bait and draw Russian aircraft into missile traps
Ukraine needs the F-16 air to ground capability more than its air to air
