"trump has ordered the termination of vital support for F-16 jamming equipment that Ukraine has. What is important to understand is that this could deprive the Ukrainian Air Force of its most important air countermeasures."
The abrupt halt in U.S. support means that the EW systems on Ukrainian F-16s will no longer receive necessary updates to counter evolving Russian tactics. Russian forces have the capability to adjust their radar frequencies and missile guidance systems to circumvent known jamming techniques. Without continuous updates, the effectiveness of Ukraine’s EW systems will diminish over time, increasing the vulnerability of their F-16s to Russian air defenses. "
