According to Havryliuk, Kyiv has appealed to partners with a request for at least ten medium-range Patriot systems. The general also said that additional deliveries of F-16 aircraft, as well as French Mirage and Swedish Gripen, are "expected."
When asked if he could announce the number of the latter, Havryliuk replied: "Let's wait until you see them in the sky over Ukraine, then you will understand."
He also did not comment on when these deliveries are expected.
And when you said "expected," do you mean all these aircraft, both "Mirage" and "Gripen," or only some of them, F-16?
Practically, you named the nomenclature correctly, but I will not detail when, what, which one
