> Even looking at total aircraft losses per side per month, the worst case is Ukraine with 307 losses over 19 months or 16.2 per month.

Unless this includes UAV's (which would be a bit strange) I don't see how this is even possible Ukraines airforce doesn't even have 300 combat aircraft.

Looking at most sources I cannot find where this number could have come from.

Going per oryx's numbers.

Ukraine (https://www.oryxspioenkop.com/2022/02/attack-on-europe-docum...).

- 71 Aircraft

- 35 Helicopters

- 25 UAV's

- 166 Recon UAV's.

297 total.

But.

Russia (https://www.oryxspioenkop.com/2022/02/attack-on-europe-docum...)

- 90 Aircraft

- 105 Helicopters

- 14 UAV's

- 286 Recon UAV's.

495 total.
