Ukraine Denies F-16 Maintenance and Parts Crisis
Ukraine denied reports of maintenance delays and parts shortages grounding over half its F-16 fleet. The government insists it can keep the jets operational through winter. The Wall Street Journal had reported a support failure affecting all US-made aircraft by year-end. Kyiv received its first F-16s two years after Russia's 2022 invasion to counter fast jet-powered drones used by Russia across Ukraine.
