    Training should go hand in hand with delivering, otherwise that’s just wasting Ukraine’s resources.

      They don’t plan to deliver until after the pilots and other crew are trained.

    • It’s not that simple. Ukraine is constantly targeted by cruise missile attacks - and while Russia is burning through their supply, these jets would be a priority target to track and destroy. A lot of pieces have to come together to make these jets deliverable and be useful, rather than just missile bait.
