The U.S. confirmed it would help train Ukraine's pilots on the F-16 — the first step toward providing upgraded aircraft for its war against Russia.
National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan confirmed Friday that the U.S. will join other nations in training Ukrainian pilots on F-16 fighter jets, as the coalition works toward an ultimate goal of providing Ukraine with new planes to use in its war with Russia.
It is not yet clear when or how many F-16s might be supplied, or which nations will be supplying them. Officials said pilots will first receive training over the course of months, outside of Ukraine, at sites across Europe. "We cannot win a war without air superiority. We need to establish priority in the sky. That is why we need to have the means to repel Russian aircraft," said Col. Yurii Ignat, a spokesman for the Air Forces of Ukraine, in an interview with Scripps News.
