Original Note:
Estimates appear highly implausible. Claims of 650 aircraft and 280 helicopters lost are inaccurate, these numbers exceed the total that the Ukraine has ever had. The WP reported in Sep 2024 that Ukrainian sources estimate their losses at 80,000 killed and 400,000 wounded. https://www.wsj.com/world/one-million-are-now-dead-or-injured-in-the-russia-ukraine-war-b09d04e5 https://www.csis.org/analysis/f-16s-unleashed-how-they-will-impact-ukraines-war https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidaxe/2024/05/13/three-ukrainian-helicopters-landed-near-the-front-line-a-russian-drone-was-watching-and-a-russian-strike-force-was-ready
