AdvertisementA new NATO member has a jet that was designed for war with RussiaBut it has never been used against Russia. Giving Ukraine the jet would be a good test that would benefit it and NATO, warfare analysts said. Sweden's Gripen, a fighter jet built for a war with Russia, is considered a good fit for Ukraine, but the aircraft hasn't been tested the way it could be in this war. Designed at the end of the Cold War, the jet is operated by about half a dozen countries. AdvertisementWar experts have said the Gripen is the jet that is best suited for Ukraine in the long term.

☆ Sweden is exploring giving Ukraine its Gripens, fighters said to be by far the 'most suitable' of the available Western jets for battling Russia: report
  + stars: | 2023-09-12 | by ( Jake Epstein | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +6 min
Sweden is considering sending Gripen fighter jets to Ukraine, according to a new report. Even if Stockholm agrees to send Gripen fighter jets to Ukraine, because it would first take time to consider the transfer and then train Ukrainian pilots, the fighter jets likely wouldn't see combat experience until mid-2024 at the earliest, the report said.

Although Sweden has poured cold water on the idea of sending Gripens to Kyiv, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said last month that his country's service members were already starting to test out the fighter jets.

Ukraine's air force remains in the fight almost a year after Russia's shambolic invasion. Sooner or later, Ukraine must induct new jet fighters into service — and they sure aren't buying them from Russia.
