The Air Force responded to the "downing" of the F-16

Russian propagandists and pro-war bloggers decided to take measures of disinformation, reporting the alleged destruction of three F-16 multi-role fighters, which, according to them, do not exist in Ukraine.

Later, this information was expanded, claiming the downing of six such aircraft during a massive attack, as well as the elimination of the NASAMS anti-aircraft missile complex.

Propagandists claimed that three planes were destroyed in Odessa, but no evidence of this event was provided. It is noted that the F-16s were not in Ukraine at the time, but Russian sources tried to make it look like they managed to shoot them down.

Ukrainian representatives reacted to this information. The spokesman of the Air Force of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Yuriy Ignat, noted that the Russian report about the downing of the F-16 causes joy, because there are no such planes in Ukraine at all, and the enemy "destroys" imagined or even memetic objects. His words indicate that these stories of Russian propaganda are simply false and aimed at disinformation.

Yuri Ignat also pointed out that people can believe whatever they want to believe, and in this case, Russian propaganda tried to satisfy this desire by creating the illusion of "destruction" of imagined or mythological objects.

At the end of the speech, Ignat also indicated that there are confirmations of the readiness of Western partners to send fighter jets to Ukraine. He explained that the training process includes not only pilots, but also infrastructure and engineers, and the possibility of transferring these planes to Ukraine has already been discussed with partners.
