On topic How flawed F-16s will be useful to Ukraine: the Air Force gave the answer
When will F-16s appear in Ukraine?
The answer to the question of when Ukraine will receive F-16 fighters may be of interest to all Ukrainians. Therefore, the presenters of one of the TV channels again asked the representative of the Air Force if there were any instructions regarding when to start working on the territory of Ukraine. In response, Ilya Yevlash only said with a smile “after Easter.”
That’s all. After Easter. Of course, we do not think about all these dates; this date has already been changed several times. So we are waiting. Our job is to work with what we are given; we are not directly responsible for supply; When the first fighters arrive in Ukraine, we will definitely talk about it,
– said a representative of the Air Force on one of the TV channels.
Yevlash joked when the first F-16s appear in Ukraine: watch the video
Not everyone understood the Air Force spokesman’s joke, so in the comments 24 Channels Yevlash explained that the concept of “after Easter” is very loose. He noted that Ukraine is still waiting for F-16s from partner countries, which have again noted that the aircraft will be available this year.
The Air Force, like all Ukrainians, is waiting to receive these multi-role fighters, which will greatly support and strengthen our airfield. As soon as this is possible, the Air Force will certainly communicate officially and inform about the acquisition of the F-16,
– Yevlash emphasized.
