The jets aren’t new, he said

MOSCOW, November 14. /TASS/. Ukraine rarely uses the F-16 fighter jets it received from Western countries because they are constantly undergoing repairs, Vladimir Zelensky said.

"We need two and a half times as many aircraft in the air at once as we’re flying now. On paper, we have that many, but the jets are constantly undergoing repairs because the F-16s aren’t new," Ukraine’s public broadcaster quoted him as saying.

The Wall Street Journal previously reported that Kiev could be left without a single operational F-16 by the end of the year because of maintenance problems.
