Furthermore, in a morning closed-door briefing with more than 10 senators and House members, General Christopher Cavoli was asked if F-16 fighter jets would help Ukraine win the war against Russia. He responded: “Yes”.

Cavoli said that the US and its allies should send the most advanced weapons they can part with to Ukraine. That included advanced aircraft, drones and missiles with ranges over 62 miles (100 kilometres), such as the Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS).

The general also argued that Ukraine needs more advanced weapons and equipment to “enhance the deep fight,” per one of five sources there. A second person said Cavoli believes the West should equip Ukraine to “reach further” into Russian positions within Ukraine’s border.
