Ukrainian and Swedish officials discussed upgrading Ukraine’s Soviet-era aircraft fleet with modern avionics recently.
The upgrades would include integration of advanced radars, defensive equipment, and electronic warfare countermeasure systems on the Ukrainian aircraft.
The upgrades were part of a broader discussion to enhance Ukraine’s aviation capabilities, including a potential collaboration between the Ukrainian and Swedish defense industries.
Ukraine’s Deputy Minister of Defense for Aviation Development, Oleksandr Kozenko, represented his country in the talks while the Swedish delegation was led by Director for Ukraine Affairs at Saab, Thomas Lindén.
