France to Supply Mirage 2000 Fighter Jets to Ukraine in Early 2025

The delivery of French Mirage 2000-5 jets aims to bolster Ukraine's air capabilities against Russian forces.

French Armed Forces Minister Sébastien Lecornu confirmed the delivery of Mirage 2000-5 jets to Ukraine in the first quarter of 2025.
The Mirage 2000-5s are being modified for air-to-ground combat and electronic warfare to meet Ukraine's needs.
Training for Ukrainian pilots and mechanics is ongoing in France to ensure readiness for the new aircraft.
The Mirage jets will complement Ukraine's existing fleet, including recently received F-16s from European allies.
The exact number of Mirage jets to be delivered remains undisclosed, but they will enhance Ukraine's long-range strike capabilities.
