any estimates on when the crews and infrastructure will be combat ready?
Best not get too hung up on timetables, or think about it in terms of the current battlefield situation or the counteroffensive. This is a long term project to transform Ukraine's Air Force into the future, where they're using Western equipment.
We may see the first F-16s next year, but this transformation will take many years.
Yeah this is definitely a case where the best time would have been years ago but the second best time is right now.
