France & Ukraine agreed to a roadmap under which Ukraine ordered an initial 16 Rafale aircraft from 100 planned. Training can begin in France during 2026, with four aircraft transferred after pilots and mechanics complete the training cycle.
France authorized licensed production of AASM bombs and SCALP missiles in Ukraine before the end of 2026. France & Italy also authorized licensed Aster 30 production.
Ukraine intends to order four SAMP/T NG systems and associated radars. Two current SAMP/T complexes will be provided temporarily pending delivery of the new systems.
