>Hmm. But putting a Ukrainian uniform on a volunteer Western pilot can be quite quick. If there can be volunteer infantrymen, why not pilots?
Pilots should be the easiest roles to fill with foreigners if they only have to fly low-risk missions. But larger numbers of Western servicemen deaths would be a political headache and impossible to hide, so they're not using them for the new Western tanks. I guess those Leopards will just replace Ukraine's armored reserves, freeing up existing Ukrainian tanks for offensives.
