Romania has received 18 F-16 fighter jets to train Ukrainian pilots, but they are also a financial problem.
Getting a free squadron of modern aircraft may seem like a bargain at first glance, but the Romanian military may soon notice some very costly disadvantages.
After it was announced in April 2025 that Romania would receive all 18 F-16 fighter jets of the Royal Netherlands Air Force to help train Ukrainian and Romanian pilots, the aircraft have now been transferred., and the parties are ready to finalize the agreement.
Over the past two months, F-16s have been delivered to the 86th RoAF Air Base in Borce. A memorandum of understanding to finalize the deal was signed on the sidelines of the ongoing NATO summit in The Hague.
