Ukraine receive F-16 fighter jets in 2-3 months - former Polish army commander 

General Waldemar Skrzypczak, the former commander of the Polish Army, reported to Ukrinform. 

"In my opinion, the training of Ukrainian pilots has been going on for a long time, as the training of a pilot on the F-16 should take place over two years. I think Ukraine is at the stage where Ukrainian pilots are almost ready to use F-16s in combat," he said.

According to him, Ukraine's international partners must now decide which of them is ready to transfer the aircraft.

"The United States has a lot of fighters of this type in the desert in Arizona and can hand them," the general said.

"In my opinion, in two or three months Ukraine will have F-16s, as Ukrainian pilots are undoubtedly ready to operate them," he added.

• On May 21, Joe Biden, President of the USA approved training for Ukrainians on the F-16.

• Ukraine hopes to receive the first modern American F-16 fighters in the fall of 2023.
