In the UK refused to deliver the Typhoon fighters for the Armed Forces: named the reason
According to him, London is not yet ready to go to such a step, since this type of aircraft will not be the right choice, but in the UK are ready to continue to help with pilots training from Ukraine in the long run. "The United Kingdom is not going to send fighters to Ukraine now. We have repeatedly stated that Typhoon fighters would not be the right choice," Ben Volles said.
In addition, the UK Defense Minister compared the departure of the Armed Forces combat aircraft with formula-1, referring to the fact that it would require the departure of hundreds of experts, pilots and engineers directly to Ukraine. Earlier, Ben Volles stated that F-16 fighters would not receive the F-16 fighters in the near future, but London would not mind if a other ally took such a step.
"Obviously we can contribute to training and support within certain limits because we do not have F-16 pilots. If you are a Russian infantryman, I do not think you really care about, whether you bomb you a plane of the Soviet era or a western aircraft , You just don't want him to bomb you, "the message said. We will remind, on May 17 it was reported that the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmitry Kuleb announced the work of "Aviation Coalition".
