Any Day Now, Ukraine Will Finally Get Its F-16s. On Friday, Ukrainian president Zelensky said he had thanked Dutch govt “for its decision to start preparing the initial 18 F-16 jets for their delivery to Ukraine.”

Dutch defense ministry stressed F-16s wouldn’t ship until all paperwork was in order and the Ukrainian defense ministry had suitable air bases and enough trained personnel.

Ukrainian pilots have been in Romania learning to fly the nimble F-16. There probably is no reason Ukraine’s first batch of F-16s won’t begin to arrive within weeks, if not days.

Netherlands, Denmark and Norway all have pledged to Ukraine their surplus F-16s. It’s possible Ukraine could get more than 60 of the single-engine, single-seat, supersonic fighters to bolster existing—and much less sophisticated—MiG and Sukhoi fighters.

These first 18 F-16s—out of 42 the Dutch air force could make available in the coming year or so—have been “improved,” Yuriy Ignat, a Ukrainian air force spokesperson, told Ukrainian media.

It’s true: the F-16A/B Mid-Life Updates, or MLUs, are improved compared to the original F-16 from the early 1980s. But don’t expect the Ukrainian planes to get the latest improvements that, say, the U.S. Air Force is adding to its own F-16s.
