Opportunity for Ukraine to Supply F-16 as Country Transitions to F-35 Fighters: Minister Olongren

According to her, the country is transitioning to the F-35 fighters, so it has the opportunity to supply the F-16. She pointed out that there is a similar situation in Norway and Denmark.

As some officials have already indicated, the timing of the F-16 delivery depends on how long it will take to train Ukrainian pilots. Olongren believes the training will take six to eight months. She points out that this is significantly less than what the Netherlands spends on training its pilots.

The minister added that a training center is being built in Romania and they are trying to start it as soon as possible.
