When will Ukraine have the first Griffin.
Zelensky announced a new date when the first Griffin fighters will be delivered to Ukraine. According to him, deliveries will begin in January-February 2027. It is said that they will be used mainly in the role of air defense against anti-rocket munitions.
"They should arrive in January-February, maybe in February. We raised the question that we need them as soon as possible. But, let's say, this process is already going on. Let's see how the Griffins will act against the Shahadas. Yes, we also trust it."
