Two military pilots from the Ukrainian Air Force have arrived in the United States, where local experts will assess their skills in controlling fighter jets, NBC reported.
Referring to the administration of US President Joe Biden, NBC reported that at this stage the training of Ukrainian pilots is not involved. It’s about understanding how long it will take Ukrainians to master new cars.
The assessment would take place at a US military base in Arizona. The number of Ukrainian pilots can be increased by another 10, the report says.
According to sources, this program does not change Washington’s official position on the issue of supplying military aircraft to Ukraine.
