Yurii Ihnat, spokesman for Ukraine�s Air Force, has reported that the Russians had reduced the number of air strikes after losing three of their Su-34 strike fighters in Ukraine’s south.
The only reference I could find (headline skimming) is a Pakistani pilot giving the politically correct statement that their native-built fighter is better than the imported one.
The F-16 was even outclassed by the J-17 in the recent Pakistani Operation Indus Shield 2023 exercises according to recent reports.
Like I said to the other guy, if that’s even true, it doesn’t matter because Russia doesn’t field the J-17.
I haven’t read a report on that in English. Could you share?
It’s in the new issue of Air Force Monthly.

If China wants to give Ukraine j-17s, I’m sure they’d be happy to take them.
