  + stars: | 2023-04-10 | by ( Alex Hollings | Sandboxx News | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +35 min
Despite being bigger and more advanced than its enemy, Russia's air force has struggled in Ukraine. It's commonly said that Russian fighter pilots are not as well trained as their Western counterparts, particularly those from the United States.
