  1. Because the Israelis are better than Russia at every level. Better equipped, better trained, better led, and better organized. The only thing Russia has over them is raw numbers.

  2. Because israel has unlimited access to the american taxpayer’s money.

  3. People usually forget that **5 countries joined Israel**  when the country was attacked by Iran with that barrage of drones and missiles some months ago.

    I think even Somalia would be safe if US, UK, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Iraq all band togheter to defend the country. 🙄

  4. Because Israel has US 5th gen fighter jets no other US ally gets. It isn’t that deep. What are they up against? Phantoms Tomcats? Maybe the Fulcrum.

  5. The Israelis are much more competent and better equipped.

    Most Israelis see Iran as an existential threat. There may be a lot of hatred towards Israel from Iranians, but I don’t think most Iranians fear that Israel will wipe them off the face of the earth.

  6. Israel has a blank cheque from USA….Ukraine does not, and of course, neither does Russia.

  7. Because the US supplies Israel its arms while telling Ukraine it can’t actually defend itself with the old stock we shipped over?

  8. Well for one thing, Israeli money spent on training the Israeli Air Force actually went towards training the Israeli Air Force, whereas Russian money spent on training the Russian Air Force actually went towards buying more yachts for Russian oligarchs.

  9. *why the US, using Israeli pilots, dominates Iranian skies

    FTFY

    Take away real time Intel, spare parts, funding, and air to air/ground missiles for those aircraft and see how Israel does.

  10. Because Israel understood the importance of SEAD from day one and on day one. Russia did not.

  12. Russia also claimed air superiority in the opening stage of their war. We will see how things develop.

  13. It helps when the US and my disgusting country, the UK helps intercepts missiles and is probably giving all intel on missile etc installations.
    Screw the US but the UK should be doing this for Ukraine
