Ukrainian pilots can master F-16 in 3-6 months — military expert Zgurets 

This was stated by military expert Serhiy Zgurets on Espreso.

According to him, Mirage aircraft were considered as one of the possible options for transfer to the Armed Forces. Then they made the main bet on the F-16.

"Pilots underwent test training in Arizona, USA, where they checked the possibility of mastering the F-16. It was determined that even for a pilot of an average level of training, who did undergo training, up to six months is enough, that is, two to three times less than previously estimated by the United States and NATO.  That is, Ukrainian pilots can master the F-16 in three to six months. This is an important indicator to speed up and intensify the discussion about providing us with the F-16," emphasized Serhiy Zgurets.

• On March 21, Ukrainian military assumed that Ukrainian pilots can learn to fly Western fighter jets in less than six months.
