خطة حماية جوية بقيادة أوروبية لأوكرانيا

By Jordi Bou

March 6, 2025 - تقترح خطة جديدة أعدها خبراء عسكريون أن قوة جوية أوروبية مكونة من 120 طائرة مقاتلة تعمل بشكل منفصل عن حلف شمال الأطلسي يمكنها تأمين الحماية الجوية من الهجمات الروسية دون إثارة صراع أوسع مع موسكو
.

“Sky Shield” would operated over uncontested areas of Ukraine to halt Russian cruise missile and drone attacks on cities and infrastructure, potentially operating as part of the “truce in the sky” proposed by Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, this week, The Guardian newspaper reports.

It requires 120 F-16s, or equivalent aircraft – F-35, Mirage, Eurofighter Typhoon, JAS 39 Gripen – flying
from European airbases,

Supporters of the plan, which include retired U.S. Air Force General Philip Breedlove, former head of U.S. European Command, and retired British army general and former deputy NATO supreme commander, Richard ShirreffIt, could “achieve greater military, political, and socioeconomic impact than 10,000 European ground troops”.
