Literally: “The Air Force carries out airspace protection tasks, carries out aviation and anti-aircraft missile cover of important state facilities, critical infrastructure facilities, troops, and inflicts painful air strikes on enemy positions. The Air Force is a collective weapon, the successful use of which depends from the integrated work of all components, including the support parts.
For more than a year, Air Force personnel have reinforced brigades of other branches and types of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the hottest areas of the front, side by side with their comrades in fierce battles, destroying the enemy with all available weapons within their capabilities, as in full-time units of the Air Force , as well as in other units of the Defense Forces of Ukraine”.
Prehistory:
- UP sources reported that in 2024 and at the beginning of 2025, troops from the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine will be massively transferred to the Ground Forces to replenish combat brigades. The last order of Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrsky regarding the transfer of personnel was sent to the military units of the Air Force on January 11. According to the interlocutor of the UP, according to this order, more than 5,000 soldiers were to be transferred to the Ground Forces.
- The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine officially stated that “the acute shortage of specialists of the Air Force’s engineering and aviation service, who maintain aircraft, was not planned and is not planned to be transferred to infantry units.”
- At the same time, the General Staff noted that the situation at the front remains difficult, there is a shortage of infantrymen in many areas. Therefore, the decision to strengthen ground brigades on the front line at the expense of personnel from other units and military branches is a forced step of the command to strengthen the defense of Ukraine.
- After that, President Volodymyr Zelensky instructed the commander of the Air Force of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Anatoly Kryvonozhko, not to reduce the number of airmen and to explain to society the situation regarding their transfer to the Ground Forces.
