According to him, the F-16 is a unique and versatile aircraft. It can be part of air defense, such as shooting down missiles that are fired at critical infrastructure.
Ignat added that the fighter could close areas where Ukraine does not have anti-aircraft forces and assets.
In addition, the F-16 can deliver long-range bombing and missile strikes. In particular, it can carry Harpoon missiles, which are designed to destroy surface targets.
«We can quickly put things in order on our sea,” Ignat said.
