This appears to have been a natural gas explosion and fire, not a result of a Ukranian attack.

F-35, no more F-22's will be built. we never exported F-22's to foreign countries. USAF wants to start retiring F-22's so they can get the next gen aircraft. I was in Netherlands several years ago and they had started building the infrastructure for F-35's.

They delayed NGAD a few months ago. The Raptor is going to get a lot of upgrades. I think they were talking about spending $5 billion on the upgrades.

This most likely was an assassination, or an attempt at least.

This is unreal footage released by NORAD - just watch as f16 is "escorting" the Russian bomber while in the Alaskan Air Defense zone ( happens all the time -Russian bombers in the zone )

that was an SU35 Russian escort fighter that did that to the US F16. im assuming some sort of "jet wash" - upsetting the air flow for the F16 - maybe @staphory can comment more ( i think he was air force )

Whatever it was, it was reckless and quite brazen.
