Image of a Ukrainian fast jet pilots, seen here at a training facility within the UK. The first Ukrainian pilots to have undergone intensive training under the guidance and world-leading expertise of Royal Air Force instructors have graduated yesterday (21/03/2024). The 10 pilots received basic flying, ground school and language training in the UK and will one day form the first line of defence in protecting Ukraines skies from Putins forces. The cohort will now move to advanced flying training provided by the French Air Force before learning to fly F-16 fighter jets. This effort is a key UK contribution to the Air Capability Coalition, co-led by the United States, Denmark and the Netherlands, which is helping build an air force consisting of modern fighter jets to form the cornerstone of Ukraines armed forces. The capability coalitions were established last year to provide a long-term commitment to supporting Ukraines armed forces, with the UK co-leading the maritime and drone coalitions.
