We should put them in hangers instead. I'm sure it'll be safe like these guys here

one bomb for each one not one and they become as good as destroyed, and that is just some normal reinforced concrete , not even a modern one

1 bomb for each HAS is not a difficult task for USAF to achieve, you will lose dozens of aircraft for good in the first wave. Atleast with a fortified base, you can survive. Endurance and survivability is higher priority.

Ukraine should learn from this as well. Not only protecting military assets but also important infrastructures like substations and power plants.

After the war they certainly will do what they can.

In era where conventional hypersonic gliders will begin to be produced in the 1000s over the next decade & more, with no reliable defense against them, need to keep stuff survivable.

Even burring planes in the desert is not enough like Saddams Iraq. US sat-based recon can detect the changes in the surface of the earth automatically and will not be fooled by them. A bunch of buried holes in the desert near a base covered up will be obvious. Then a ARRW will fly and arrive in literally 5 mins or so.

you can survive but you cant fight back .
what happened to Saddam aircraft? is that the sort of survival you refer to?
withyour intercptors and figters trapped , the enemy can do the bombing again and again and again
