Potential Transfer of Swedish Gripen Fighters to Ukraine: Training and Coordination Process

“We will do our best to support them also with aviation. But so far there are no new obligations to provide Ukraine with Swedish aircraft,” Kristersson said.

However, he did not rule out the transfer of fighter jets to Ukraine in the future.

Recently, the Swedish government allowed Ukrainian pilots to be trained on the Swedish JAS 39 Gripen fighter. Pilots will also be able to practice on simulators and make test flights.

The Saab JAS 39 Gripen is a fourth-generation multirole fighter designed with versatility in mind. Despite the fact that he formally belongs to the class of fighters, he was conceived as a multi-purpose aircraft capable of performing various tasks.

The Office of the President of Ukraine reported that the transfer of Swedish Gripen fighters to Ukraine would need to be coordinated with other countries, as well as with the supply of F-16s.
