Ukraine uses American-made F-16 fighters and expects to receive French ones” Mirages”, which is a powerful help at this stage. At the same time, for long-term protection, the ideal choice for Ukraine could be the Swedish Gripen – a jet aircraft specially created to counter Russian threats.
This was reported by Business Insider. The Gripen has an advantage over the F-16 because, as Michael Boehnert, an air combat specialist at the RAND Corporation, points out, it is better suited to Ukraine's needs.
