Sweden made a statement about transferring radar reconnaissance aircraft to Ukraine.


Ukraine continues to receive long-range radar detection (DRLO) ASC 890 aircraft from Sweden. There are currently no delays in the transfer of these aircraft, but their distribution is taking place after the completion of modifications to the F-16. This comment was provided by the head of the Swedish Ministry of Defense.
The Swedish Ministry of Defense confirmed that the work on the transfer of ASC 890 is proceeding according to plan. However, for security reasons, details regarding the timing and location of this process remain confidential, the ministry stated.
It was previously planned that Ukraine would receive two radar reconnaissance and control aircraft ASC 890 as part of the aid package. The cost of this package is 1.16 billion euros, said the spokesperson for the Prime Minister of Sweden, Tom Samuelsson.
These radar reconnaissance and control aircraft ASC 890 will enhance Ukraine's capabilities for targeted detection and management of air and sea targets, as well as strengthen the country's ability to strike targets in the long term. The aircraft will be supplied along with training and technical equipment.
