"The first aircraft should already be flying in Ukrainian skies in 2028-2029. That is, additional radars, additional missiles. We have also added licensing. This is Aster-30 for SAMP/T air defense systems, AASM Hammer air defense systems and SCALP cruise missiles. This will strengthen Ukraine's capabilities and positions on the front," the French President emphasized.
