Ukraine has no plans to use F-16 fighters in the summer counteroffensive, Reznikov said in an interview with the Japanese TV channel NHK.
He noted that training Ukrainian pilots to fly these aircraft takes time. Also, Ukraine needs to negotiate with partners to provide engineers and technicians to ensure maintenance and repair of the F-16s.
According to the minister, Ukraine plans to deploy the F-16 fighters in the autumn or winter.
