More than 30 F-16s can be transferred from Greece to Ukraine

More than 30 “free” F-16s have appeared in the EU, which can be transferred to Ukraine. For example, Greece, which is currently implementing a large-scale program to modernize its Air Force fleet may transfer to Ukraine.
As part of the modernization program, it is planned to decommission 108 fighters and prepare them for sale, including 32 F -16C/-D Block 30 fighters.
According to Greek media, the transfer of 32 F-16C/-D Block 30 to Ukraine is “considered almost inevitable.” It is noted that during their service, fighters of this type have undergone two modernizations and today, on average, they have used up about 60% of their service life.
So, Greece is undertaking a substantial transformation of its air force, planning to decommission and sell parts of its diverse fleet, including F-16 and Mirage 2000 fighter jets, as part of its efforts to modernize and streamline military capabilities for the 21st century.
According to The War Zone, the Block 30 F-16s include 34 single-seat F-16C and six F-16D variants. Those aircraft were procured under the Peace Xenia I Foreign Military Sales program and delivered between 1988 and 1990. It was previously suggested those aircraft could be used as aggressors for air defense training, but it now seems more likely that Athens will seek a foreign buyer. The aircraft might not have to fly far – Ukraine was quickly named as a potential destination.
