One of the pilots says that flying an F-16 is very interesting, although Soviet MiGs cannot be called "too boring." "But the F-16 is definitely more adaptive, it moves very easily," he says.

Major General Jan Dam of the Danish Air Force comments that the F-16, although a fairly old model, has been modernized several times.

"Now it is a very modern aircraft, comparable to the best Western fighters," he notes.

The NATO press service reminded that F-16s are being provided to Ukraine by Denmark, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Norway.
