Netherlands and Denmark pledge fighter jets for Kyiv

The Netherlands and Denmark have announced they will donate up to 61 F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine once pilot training has been satisfactorily completed, as Volodymyr Zelenskiy visited both countries after months of entreaties to bolster the Ukrainian air force.

Netherlands and Denmark pledge fighter jets for Kyiv

Denmark's prime minister, Mette Frederiksen, said her country would provide 19 jets - "hopefully" six around new year, eight more next year and the remaining five in 2025. "Please take this donation as a token of Denmark's unwavering support," Frederiksen said.

Mark Rutte, the Dutch prime minister, did not put a number on the Dutch donation, but said the Netherlands had 42 in its air force. The country is in the process of replacing them with more advanced US-made F-35s.

"Today we can announce that the Netherlands and Denmark commit to the transfer of F-16 aircraft to Ukraine," Rutte said at a press conference with the Ukrainian president at an airbase at Eindhoven. The jets will be handed over once "the conditions for such a transfer have been met", he added.
