The first Ukrainian F-16 aircraft, ceremoniously handed over to the The Ukrainian Air Force will be based at the Limanske airfield in the Odessa region on the border with Romania. This was reported with reference to its sources by the resource «Condottiero tm». According to the channel, the aircraft that participated in the ceremony together with Zelensky have already flown to Romania.
The same airfield in the Odessa region received Patriot anti-aircraft systems and two IRIS-T for cover from air strikes.
Previously, two MiG-29 regiments were based in Limanske. The length of the runway is 2,500 meters, the width is 45 meters. The runway was recently repaired to receive F-16s.
The main location of the Ukrainian F-16s is the Romanian airfield Constanta, so that they cannot be reached by the Geraniums and Iskanders. They enter the Odessa region via Moldova, fearing to fly along the Black Sea within the hunting radius of our S-400 anti-aircraft systems and Su-57 fighters.
