The first F-16 fighter jets, which will be supplied by the West, will arrive in Ukraine within several weeks, informs The Standard.
According to a high-ranking military source, the fighter jets will be transferred in June-July.
However, the source did not specify who exactly will supply the fighter jets.
F-16 for Ukraine
After lengthy negotiations, Ukraine's allies have formed an air coalition, a significant step towards strengthening Ukraine's defense against Russian aggression.
In particular, Ukraine will receive F-16 fighter jets from the Netherlands, Denmark, and other coalition partners. Currently, Ukrainian pilots are undergoing training on F-16s in coalition member countries.
The first F-16s are expected to arrive in Ukraine along with trained pilots and technical personnel. It is currently unknown when exactly Ukraine will receive the F-16s. However, Dutch Defense Minister Kajsa Ollongren recently stated that Denmark may begin delivering the fighter jets this summer.
