Danish Facebook users claim that #F16 jets have conducted unusual low level dog fight training over the summer.
I *so* hope we're repeating what Britain did with Storm Shadow:
Day one: "Hey, we'll give this to Ukraine"
Day two: BOOOM!!

@anderspuck I read this a few days ago in a Facebook group: "Jeg bor i Kolding & vil blot nævne, at vi allerede i juni/juli og august har observeret dog-figth, eller en form for 'ryst fjenden af' med jævn mellemrum her på egnen.....!? Da gik snakken allerede på, at DK vil donere F16 til Ukraine og træne dem....så vi gik ud fra: De er i gang....👍" 1/2
So. The Danish prime minister, the vice prime minister and the minister of defense are visiting the danish fighter jet base tomorrow at 3PM.
And Zelenskyi is currently in Sweden, right next door.
What are the odds he'll show up for a very special announcement and a photo op?

I can understand why allies might say this, but even without #russia having committed untold war crimes in its deranged effort to invade, annex and genocide its neighbour, the state under such attack has the moral and legal right to target any facilities that continue supporting that criminal invasion in order to, well, *make it stop*.
If #Ukraine's *defensive* long fires are modern and *accurate*, isn't that all the better? The hoi polloi of #orcdom gets to live and, maybe after a few generations, manage to figure out what a fucking horror show their tribal cult really was and maybe it's finally time to try something less medieval?
But first their offensive long strike capabilities need to be wiped out and those are currently safely sitting inside the orc empire. With coordinates.
#Denmark plans training #F16 pilots for #Ukraine, open to donating planes.
Danish Min Def meets with colleagues Monday, expects final model ready within a month with the training taking "several months".
"Denmark will push hard to make this a prioritized effort"
@anderspuck , military analyst at the Defence Academy estimates that if the pilots are experienced fighter pilots cross training can be done in a few months.
One suspects the F-16 issue has been under debate for some time already and *perhaps* (hopefully) it has already been decided, but some details (logistics, maintenance, armament) remain to be sorted out.
The sooner the better, one would think.
