France to Supply Ukraine with Mirage 2000-5 Jets in Early 2025

The fighter jets will enhance Ukraine's strike capabilities with advanced weaponry amid ongoing conflict.

Ukraine is set to receive three Mirage 2000-5 fighter jets from France in the first quarter of 2025.
The jets will be equipped with SCALP-EG cruise missiles and Hammer glide bombs, expanding Ukraine's capacity for deep strikes.
Modifications include the addition of AASM bombs, 30 mm cannons, and electronic warfare systems.
These aircraft will complement Ukraine's existing fleet, currently focused on air defense roles with F-16s and MiG-29s.
French industry is working to supply more missiles, with efforts to restore expired SCALP-EG missiles for Ukraine.
