Military analyst and former fast jet pilot Sean Bell has said the US and its allies sending F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine will be of "major concern" for Vladimir Putin.

"But, even if Ukraine was to be gifted a squadron of F-16s, that would not provide credible or capable combat air capability," he said.

Mr Bell added that Ukraine needs trained pilots and logistic support, plus a spectrum of support capability, which all takes time and is "very expensive".
