The American F-16 fighter is very expensive equipment, but in terms of functionality it differs little from the Russian Su-24 bomber. This opinion was expressed by the Governor of the Kherson region Vladimir Saldo.
He wondered how the F-16 differs from the Su-24.
They are also good. And the functionality of the F-16 is exactly the same. Its task is to launch long-range missiles, such as Storm Shadow, Scalp. It is no different from the tasks of other aircraft.
Saldo noted that the F-16, when approaching the line of combat contact, immediately falls under the defeat of air defense forces.
Su-24 — Soviet and Russian front-line bomber designed for delivering missile and bomb strikes in simple and complex weather conditions, day and night, including at low altitudes with targeted destruction of ground and surface targets.
