Eighteen F-16s from the Netherlands and three Gepards from Germany will soon arrive, what else will Ukraine receive this year?

The Dutch government will prepare 18 F-16 fighter jets for transfer to Ukraine, but first, it is necessary to prepare permits from the US for export and to fulfill several other criteria, such as personnel training and infrastructure.

The German government updated its list of military aid, announcing the transfer of three Gepard self-propelled anti-aircraft guns in addition to the already transferred 49. Germany also transferred 30,240 shells, 2,500 155 mm, and 25,536 rounds of 40 mm ammunition.

In addition, Ukraine will also receive two Wisent 1 mine clearance tanks, 10 Vector reconnaissance drones, among other equipment.

After the new Minister of Foreign Affairs of Poland, Radoslaw Sikorski, visited Kyiv on December 22, Poland announced the preparation of a new aid package for Ukraine.

In January, an artillery coalition will be launched in Paris, and Iceland has joined the IT and demining coalitions. The country also is providing an additional €340,000 within a NATO medical aid package.
