The first of the new F-16Vs was meant to be delivered in the fourth quarter of this year but that has been delayed to the third quarter of next year due to pandemic-related supply chain disruptions, the ministry said. "Multiple channels are being used, and we are minimising the damage from this," he said, adding they still expected to get the full order delivered before 2026.
