On September 18, Lieutenant Colonel Tyson Wetzel was quoted in 19FortyFive for his article in the Atlantic Council’s “Airpower after Ukraine” series regarding why Russia failed to achieve air supremacy in Ukraine.
Russian forces have failed to control the skies, and have suffered huge aircraft losses that have hindered their air support for the ground invasion.
Forward Defense leads the Atlantic Council’s US and global defense programming, developing actionable recommendations for the United States and its allies and partners to compete, innovate, and navigate the rapidly evolving character of warfare. Through its work on US defense policy and force design, the military applications of advanced technology, space security, strategic deterrence, and defense industrial revitalization, it informs the strategies, policies, and capabilities that the United States will need to deter, and, if necessary, prevail in major-power conflict.
