Hey Hasard. Just a quick thanks for your AmA session.

Did you have a chance to fly with some Ukrainian pilots or meet any of them? How do you think they will master F-16s fast enough after flying Soviet Su's?

Power grid, Ukrainian or let's say Canadian, is a combination of various facilities. They are: power generating stations (nuclear, gas and coal (TES), hydro (GES), power substations (step-up and step-down), power transmission lines (overhead transmission lines (OTLs or LEP). Out of these facilities, nuclear and maybe GES (hydro) are somehow capable of withstanding direct strikes and preserving some of their operation. Power substations and OTLs cannot be such by nature, no matter what country they are in.
