The Czech Republic has handed over the first F-16 fighter jet trainer to one of its tactical aviation brigades, Ukrainian Air Force Commander Mykola Oleshchuk said.

He noted that the main module of the simulator is already being tested and prepared for operation by Ukrainian specialists.

"I am grateful to everyone who helps Ukraine strengthen its aviation component. Of course, in addition to the F-16s themselves, we need to create a powerful training and material base for our youth. I urge our allies to join this initiative," Oleshchuk said.
