    Debut of the F-16

    Maryana Bezuha (Ukrainian politician, People's Deputy of Ukraine) writes that an F-16 was shot down by a Ukrainian Patriot missile: "According to my information, the F-16 piloted by Alexey 'Moonfish' Mes was downed by a Patriot missile system due to a lack of coordination between units. Reports indicated that he 'lost control.' The incident occurred during one of the most intense air assaults by the Russians on August 26. War is war; such episodes can happen. However, the culture of dishonesty within the Ukrainian Air Force Command, as well as other high military headquarters, leads to a failure to improve the military decision-making process based on truthful, consistently gathered analytics, resulting in deterioration and even collapse, as seen in the Pokrovsk direction. Yet, none of the generals have faced consequences. General Oleshchuk remains in his position."
