Ukraine wants to buy the Turkish fifth-generation fighter jets KAAN and already knows where to use them, states the Ambassador of Ukraine to Türkiye, Vasyl Bodnar.

The ambassador has reported that this is not a new idea; negotiations started before the war. Ukraine has several companies with different experiences in engine design. Bodnar also clarifies that there is a kind of consortium of Ukrainian companies competing for this engine with other international and domestic manufacturers.

“However, Ukraine has experience and a good partnership label, and we can quickly produce equipment with the characteristics necessary for this aircraft. Creating such a project will also bring significant benefits to the Turkish side. Having its own production based on new technologies is progress not only in strengthening security and defense but also in competitiveness in the markets,” the ambassador says.
