Other sources say that Ukrainian pilots will begin training in France this year and continue throughout 2027 and early 2028, in line with the delivery timelines mentioned.

This is exactly what Ukraine needs. F-16s, Mirage-2000s, Mig-29s and SU-27s for the remainder of 2026. In 2027 they'll start the process of phasing in Gripen-C/D and phasing put their Soviet made aircraft. By 2028 they'll start receiving Gripen-E and Rafale, at which point they'll phase out the remainder of their Soviet made aircrat in service and their Mirage-2000s.

By 2029 their fleet will consist almost exclusively of F-16s, Gripen-C/D/E and Rafale, with modern Western weapons.

11 more Russian ships were struck by Ukraine in the Sea of Azov last night as they are sitting ducks, without any support from the Russian Navy. Ukrainr is inflicting billions of dollars worth if damage using cheap attack drones. Russia has yet to come up with a solution.

Nearly 100 ships have been struck and put out of working over the last week. The ability to supply Crimea via the water has been all but eliminated at this point. The Kerch bridge remains the only supply route with capable air defense.
