UKColumn’s Charles Malet interviews Tim Davies – ex British RAF and Royal Navy; link below

A few notes: Not a proxy war anymore; it’s a full on Nato war. Language is a huge issue; Russians are masters at ground level air defence; Smedley Butler – War is a racket; so transparent now. Tim speaks quickly, but there is a lot more to absorb; British military not in a good way is one take away……(understatement!)

With over £9 billion of British taxpayers’ money committed to sustaining the conflict in Ukraine, what part does control of the airspace play in all of this? The UK Government announced, recently, the completion of the elementary phase of fast jet training for ten Ukrainian pilots. Tim Davies, a veteran fast jet pilot, trainer and electronic warfare officer, with 20 years’ experience in the Royal Navy and Royal Air Force, puts this announcement in context.
