Delay in transportation F-16. precedence Ukraine

The deliveries that were to take place in 2025 were moved to next year. The Norwegian Government prioritises the transportation of both aircraft and spare parts to Ukraine. Romania has so far received 21 of the 32 Norwegian F-16MLU fighters purchased in 2022. The transaction cost then was $388 million. According to [Defense Romania](https://www.defenseromania.ro/de-ce-nu-au-mai-ajuns-anul-acesta-in-romania-toate-cele-32-de-f-16-cumparate-cate-avioane-au-fost-vivrate-si-ce-se-intampla-cu-restul 639508.html), the Romanian Government does not argue the postponement of supplies as the current number of aircraft suffices Romania in the pace of crew training.
