I don't find the sentence you are quoting, but my math from the above list shows 1,403 aircraft. If you only want to count only 4th gen aircraft, then Russia's 250 (your number) right now compares to zero for Ukraine; if Sweden gives them a squadron of Grippens, that would make the score 250 to 16.

The reality is that Ukraine is not going to be able to go head to head against the Russian air force anytime soon.
Do you consider the Su-34/25/24 to be fighter/interceptors?
