As usual, we're providing too little, too late. The F-16s were desperately needed in time for the summer offensive; instead, they will arrive far too late to be a factor and Ukrainian ground forces will remain vulnerable as Russia has air superiority over the entire line of contact. So while it will be nice to read about why F-16s are the obvious option, it's essentially irrelevant. Just like it is irrelevant that we sent some GBADs too late and in insufficient quantities to stop the Russian destruction of civilian infrastructure.
