I have never seen anyone so addicted to spreading bad news about USA's military. How can you hate something that would always be greater than you and your generation. Na wa o

The pilot was Ukrainian.
The US reports more crashes because this country has more flights in a day or two than Nigeria has in a year. That in itself increases the probability.
On average, there are approximately 45,000 flights per day with at least 5,000 aircraft in the air at any given moment.
Your logic is flawed. The European Union has 35000 flights a day, so why are their planes not always crashing?

Using your logic, the EU should also have a high number of crashes, though it should be lower than that of the US. But that is clearly not the case.

Did you not read that this was a result of pilot error, not Russia?
No one fears Russia and Putin’s empty threats.
Did you not also read that Ukraine debunked the claim that the crash was a direct result of pilot error?

Nobody is afraid of Russia you say darling but NATO nations are mobilizing for another Eastern confrontation with Russian.

How does your statement negate mine? The more flights, the higher the probability. I responded to someone who compared American air travel to that of a third world nation.

the amount that african leaders are stealing is enough to pave the streets of africa with gold.
Ai tells me one of those (F-16s) cost about $70 million. The US has 2,145 of those. Our politicians can own untraceable investment and assets in choice countries and lavish till they are eventually caught and disgraced only to be recycled again but US, China and Russia arsenal worth can pave their own streets with gold.

You're quite correct. I don't swallow the entitlement pill myself.

Nope, didn’t read anything about the claim being debunked. I’ll say it again, nobody fears Putin and his empty threats.

With the rate at which aircrafts crash keeps making the news in the USA, you'd think its a world third country will terrible institutions and poorly trained/unskilled pilots


They've reported more cases of such than we have in 2024

But as per say na saner clime.....White worshippers no go talk
People like you have nothing but just hate for no reason. Fighter jet crashed in Ukraine and you are referring "With the rate at which aircrafts crash keeps making the news in the USA, you'd think its a world third country will terrible institutions and poorly trained/unskilled pilots". It show how dumb you are and those that kept liking this kind of useless posts are daft too. If you don't know how to read before commenting, don't bother writing nonsense.

First of all, why are you people are so off topic. And secondly, European Union is made of many country compare to USA just one country. Thirdly, US supplied the fighter jet that crashed in Ukraine with Ukrainian pilot. So what does this got to do with USA and/ plane crashing in USA. I see why Nigeria as a country is so backward. Nigerians claimed to be the smartest people yet and can't do anything to show the world but corruptions and doing illegal things around the world.

Your argument is that the US has more crashes because it has more flights.

But the EU also has a lot of flights and way less crashes than the US.

So clearly, there is something behind the many crashes in the US and it has very little to do with the US having so many flights.

These wars are now getting out of hand.

Citizens of these countries are paying for these political rascalities
Summary of the situation

Countries spending millions and billions of dollars for people to die. Yet the leaders of affected countries are protected.
At the end of the war, Ukrainian president may become richer than he was before the war.

Putin on his own should stop wasting Russia's resources. Someone should call for a peace deal (again, if done before).
Let this stop!

US can also call for peace deal

If Putin is not feared then NATO won't be needed to go against Russia. NATO was made for the USSR now Russia.

The probability of crashes is higher when there is a large number of flights. How does anything you’re saying negate that?

What threats has Putin made good on since he started this war? He even threatened Sweden and Finland against joining NATO. They joined and still
he’s done nothing. He’s threatened the nato forces over and over and still nothing. Empty threats.

There are about a hundred reasons a fighter jet can crash and the pilot could just be a few of those reasons.
The billions these superpowers are spending on meaningless wars can turn Africa into Wakanda.

The billion won't get squandered the way your oil money is currently being looted?

WriterNig:
A US-made Ukrainian F-16 jet was destroyed in a crash on Monday, the Wall Street Journal reported citing a U.S. official.

The official said it looked like the incident had not been caused by enemy fire and was likely the result of pilot error.

Ukraine's air force did not immediately respond to a request for comment about the report.

If Putin is not feared why have NATO forces not marched into Ukraine? Why have the USA not declared a no fly zone in Ukraine? Recently Ukraine called on Poland to help shoot down Russian missiles in Ukraine air space, why did Poland refuse to? What are they scared of? grin
