Russian air defenses have always been overrated, and it's not just because of equipment, but because of doctrine. The sensor suite on the F-16 is almost certainly far beyond anything either side is flying in this war, which not only helps for precision attacks, but also aids in avoiding ground-based anti-air. And if we sell Ukraine some more JDAMs, the F-16s will be able to stand off, execute a pop-up guided toss-bombing, and then hit the deck and boogie.
As far as the US being behind the drone attack, if we wanted to bomb the Kremlin, the Russians -- and the entire world -- would goddamned well know it. There's no fixing what elephants do ... and we don't use Black Cats in our ordnance.
