Ukraine LOSES Another U.S Made F-16 | Total 3 F-16s LOST, Only A Few Remain In Skies To Face Russia [Video]

Ukraine LOSES Another U.S Made F-16 | Total 3 F-16s LOST, Only A Few Remain In Skies To Face Russia

Ukraine has confirmed the loss of another U.S.-made F-16 fighter jet during a combat mission repelling a Russian airstrike. This marks the third F-16 crash since the West began supplying the jets. Communication was lost mid-mission as the pilot destroyed three targets before an emergency forced him to eject. He avoided civilian casualties and is recovering. The incident raises concerns over Ukraine’s ability to match Russia’s superior airpower with limited, delayed F-16 deliveries. An investigation is underway as Ukraine struggles to deploy the jets effectively. #UkraineWar #F16 #Ukraine #Russia #Airstrike #MilitaryNews #JetCrash #PilotEjects #USWeapons #Kyiv #UkraineAirForce #CombatMission #DefenseNews #NATO #F16Loss #USMilitarySupport #UkraineConflict #RussianAirForce #Su35 #MilitaryAviation #UkraineRussiaWar #BreakingNews #WesternWeapons #UkraineDefense #AirPower #JetFighter #UkraineUpdate #MilitaryAid #F16Ukraine #UkraineVsRussia #UkraineStruggles Also Read What Makes Ukraine’s Minerals So Special?

BREAKING: Ukraine Confirms Loss of Another U.S.-made F-16 Fighting Falcon During Combat Operations

26-year-old pilot Pavlo Ivanov was tragically killed in the mission, making this the second confirmed F-16 loss in the Ukraine war. However, a major question remains: Who shot it down — Russia or Ukraine itself? President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has demanded a full military report into the incident, as speculation grows over whether this was enemy fire or another deadly case of friendly fire. Russian military blogs claim the jet was downed by a surface-to-air missile (SAM), but Kyiv has not confirmed the cause. With rising tensions, high-risk air missions, and increasing losses, the F-16 saga raises urgent questions about Ukraine's air defense coordination and battlefield clarity. #F16Down #UkraineWar #PilotKilled #BreakingNews #UkraineConflict #RussiaUkraine #FriendlyFire #UkraineAirForce #PavloIvanov #Zelenskyy #WarInUkraine #F16Crash #NATOJets #MilitaryNews #EasternUkraine #UkraineDefense #USJetsInUkraine #AirCombat Also Read Pakistan Air force F-16 crashes in Islamabad during parade day rehearsal :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-air-force-f-16-crashes-in-islamabad-during-parade-day-rehearsal-3048159.html?ref=DMDesc Abhinandan Varthamanan: This year, that year, the dog fight which took down a Pak F-16 :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/abhinandan-varthamanan-this-year-that-year-the-dog-fight-which-took-down-a-pak-f-16-3040561.html?ref=DMDesc Pakistan Air Force fighters intercept Kabul bound Spice Jet plane, escort out of its airspace :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/pakistan-air-force-fighters-intercept-kabul-bound-spice-jet-escort-out-of-airspace-2963140.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.274~ED.346~HT.336~GR.124~
