Ukraine To Receive First US-Made F-16 Jets In "Weeks" As Fighter Pilots Complete Training | Russia

Ukraine is expected to receive its first F-16 fighter jets from its Western allies in June-July, said a high-ranking Ukrainian military source. However, it is yet to be ascertained which country would supply the F16 fighter jets to Ukraine. So far, Denmark, the Netherlands, Norway and Belgium have committed to sending F-16 jets to Ukraine. The Ukrainian military, facing Russia's full-scale February 2022 invasion, has been limited to a relatively small fleet of Soviet-era jets. For over two years of war, Ukraine has sought US-made F-16 fighter jets to counter Russia's air superiority.
