Ukrainian pilots have now been allowed to test fly the Gripen fighter plane. This is what Defense Minister Pål Jonson (M) writes in a statement.
The pilots have undergone orientation training which includes test flights in both aircraft and simulator and briefings for ground personnel.
According to Defense Minister Pål Jonsson, the experiences from the orientation training should be the basis for finding out if there are conditions to send Gripen planes to Ukraine.
This is the way.
How do these jets compare to the F-16 or the fighters Ukraine currently use?
it will take some time before the gripen is in ukraine. the Swedish government has notified the armed forces of an investigation. but we hope to see the gripen doing what it is made for soon!! slave ukraine.
Thank you Sweden
