Denmark's government said Monday that the training of Ukrainian pilots on F-16 jets has started and the retirement of the Scandinavian country's fleet of aging U.S. fighters has been moved up two years.
The replacement fighters, F-35s, will be operative by 2025, acting Defense Minister Troels Lund Poulsen said. Initially, the switch was planned for 2027.
“We will also consider whether we should make a concrete donation to Ukraine of the Danish F-16 fighters, and how many there should be,” he said. “This does not mean that you cannot make a decision beforehand. But will be in Denmark until 2024,” Lund Poulsen said.
