The Ukrainian Air Force's Maintenance Challenges

Grippings are eminently doable and would not substantially decrease the capabilities of Swedish Air Force, for example. Over time, they probably will need to be on F-16s, but at least in the short term, I think the Grippings are a great option. The Ukrainians have some challenges around maintenance because they're operating such an amazing array of equipment from different manufacturers. They've gotten really, really good at doing maintenance for a lot of the Soviet equipment.
