Now, the number and capability of American fighters is at its lowest level, and short-term training has weakened the readiness of pilots. All in all, the United States Air Force today is not prepared to carry out an operation like “Desert Storm”.

Kendall said: “We have to think about whether we are organized to deal with threats from Russia and China. Are we trained to deal with that threat? Are we prepared in terms of the way we structure the many different functions within the Department of the Air Force, both for the Air Force and for the Space Force, to be able to deal with that threat? If tomorrow they ask us to go to war against Russia or China, are we really ready?” He wrote, despite the numerous advantages of the F-16 fighter, this fighter has significant disadvantages, and the Russian Sukhoi-35 fighter with its radar and long-range missiles will identify and destroy these targets before the pilot realizes it.
