DN: the training of Ukrainian pilots for the F-16 leaves much to be desired
Ukrainian pilot training for the F-16 fighter jet leaves much to be desired, and the number of pilots undergoing training is small. The publication reported this Defense News (DN) with reference to American officials.
It is noted that one of the criteria for selecting pilots for training is knowledge of technical English. Because of this, a limited number of pilots can operate the F-16.
According to the publication’s interlocutors, about a dozen people are currently undergoing training.
Earlier, Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky said that the United States is obliged to supply Ukraine with “fighter squadrons” as part of a security agreement. We are also talking about the F-16.
