Lt. Gen. Michael Loh said that Ukraine’s most experienced fighter pilots could complete U.S. training in Arizona on the F-16 in as little as three months.
The Air Force's planned tests will make sure the new Compass Call's electronic warfare capabilities have been properly integrated into the Gulfstream jet.
Gen. Allvin said at his confirmation hearing that F-16s for Ukraine would become useful for the country after their integration with the broader force.
The first two T-7s will head to Edwards Air Force Base in California this fall, and a third will undergo testing on extreme weather conditions elsewhere.
