Could the US pull off a Berlin style airlift in Kiev, if necessary?

"From 26 June 1948 to 30 September 1949 the Berlin Airlift carried supplies to the people of West Berlin, a difficult feat given the size of the city's population.[1][2] American and British air forces flew over Berlin more than 250,000 times, dropping necessities such as fuel and food, with the original plan being to lift 3,475 tons of supplies daily. By the spring of 1949, that number was often met twofold, with the peak daily delivery totalling 12,941 tons.[3]

Having initially concluded there was no way the airlift could work, its continued success became an increasing embarrassment for the Soviets"
