 Ukraine will receive modern fighter jets of the four-plus generation from the U.S. Alexei Reznikov, the Minister of Defence of Ukraine, is convinced that Ukraine will receive modern fighter jets of the four-plus generation from the U.S. He explains that the partners of Ukraine delay the supply due to their practicality and good judgment. Reznikov said in an interview for the National Joint 24-7 Newscast, I have come through the evolution from saying no, Alexei, it is impossible to the implementation of real projects several times. The first time I heard a no concerning the Stinger manpads was in November 2021 when I had just taken office with no experience but was facing big challenges and tasks from President Zelensky. But now I know for sure what is impossible today will be possible tomorrow. We were supplied with stingers in two months. In January 2022, from our Lithuanian partners, by agreement of the partners, he added, Reznikov added that the situation was the same with 155mm artillery, the Himmars, MLRS, the Iris T infrared homing missile, the Nassarms systems, and moreover the Patriot anti-aircraft systems, especially the latter seemed fantastic. But as of now, two divisions have taken up combat duty in Ukraine. So fighter jets of the modern four plus generation will certainly be supplied. Why is this supply delayed? The delay disappoints us because it causes deaths and injuries to the Ukrainian troops and they are our primary value unlike the Russian soldiers or the Russians and we explain it to our partners. Modern aircraft platforms are an important component of the air defense system. And the Patriot system costs 1 billion US dollars plus the missiles and a single fighter jet costs nearly 120 million US dollars and further maintenance is required. Ten fighter jets equals 1.2 billion US dollars. So when they count their budget capacities, they realize that this decision must be approved by Congress and taxpayers and must not affect the current level of military aid. They consciously and responsibly want to get to the finish line of this marathon to the victory of Ukraine.
