Norway responded when Ukraine will receive the promised F-16 fighters.

Ukraine has been promised F-16 fighters by 2025

The Norwegian Minister of Defense, Tore O. Sandvik, stated that the delivery of the promised F-16 fighters to Ukraine will be completed by 2025. He confirmed that Ukraine has already received some aircraft, while others are expected to be delivered in the coming years.

According to the head of the Norwegian Ministry of Defense, the transfer of aircraft is proceeding according to plan, taking into account the operational security of Ukraine. He did not specify the exact number of aircraft that have been transferred, citing security considerations.

'With this contribution, Norway is helping to improve Ukraine's air defense in cooperation with other participants in the Air Defense Coalition,' Sandvik noted.

The Government of Norway has increased its support for Ukraine's air defense by 1.3 billion Norwegian kroner in 2024. This will help enhance the level of air security in Ukraine and strengthen cooperation with other countries in the Air Defense Coalition.

It is worth noting that the United Kingdom and the European Union will conclude a military agreement.

The delivery of F-16 fighters to Ukraine is an important step in strengthening the country's defense capabilities and will contribute to enhancing security in the region. Additional support from Norway indicates a deepening of cooperation and interaction between countries in the field of defense.
