Ukraine has managed to give “Russia a bloody nose” since Russian forces invaded Crimea earlier this year, but it also has “lost almost an entire squadron of airplanes flying sorties in their own airspace,” said US Air Forces in Europe- Air Forces Africa Commander Gen. Frank Gorenc. Speaking at AFA’s Air & Space Conference in National Harbor, Md., on Monday, Gorenc said the crisis in Ukraine “offers us a very valuable opportunity to look at a problem we’re going to have to deal with,” specifically “ambiguity.” He noted that US and NATO forces could not confirm the identity of the “little green men” operating inside of Ukraine at the beginning of the crisis. There also was “ambiguity” around who possessed and was firing advanced surface-to-air missiles. “We have an airliner that was shot down,” said Gorenc, referring to Malaysia Airlines Flight 17, which crashed in July killing all 298 people on board. “We still don’t really attribute who did that and why” he said. Gorenc also noted that one-third of Poland’s airspace falls inside the range of Russia’s integrated air defenses. “That’s an interesting concept, particularly considering one airliner already was shot down in Ukraine,” said Gorenc. He added, “We’ll have to account for this contested airspace to make sure we have air supremacy and air dominance” in the future.
驻欧空军(USAFE)司令盟军中央欧洲空军(AAFCE)司令弗兰克·戈伦茨日前在演说中提到:到底发射了先进的地对空导弹存在极大不确定性******我们真的不能确定谁做的和为什么。(等等,不是十万二十万分地肯定是大毛发射的导弹吗?)
