combat enough gotten this done. it is likely that the airframes being supplied to ukraine will be quite old. i need a lot of maintenance to stay in the air. training pilots and maintenance staff will be the big challenges for ukraine. how the f? 16 will actually impact cubes. war effort will depend on the weapons supplied with the jets or ukraine will be hoping to receive modern weapons such as the us. i'm from air to air missiles, which can shoot down enemy aircraft up to 180 kilometers away. but these have yet to be approved and could be deemed too sensitive to fall into russian hands. that president zalinski has spent months asking for funded yes. without getting them. i asked the deputy correspondent and they so expert terry schultz in brussels
9:04 pm
. what has changed? well, anthony, the one thing we know didn't change is president zelinski is position and his tenacity on just hammering nato leaders to provide him with these weapons. we saw this happen with tanks, as you'll remember that he was told he would never get them to be sold. he would never get f sixteens, another fighter jets of that caliber. and here they are being ready to be dispatched. so i think that it's just one more example of how it zalinski goes into meetings with these leaders. he's made a big effort to meet them in person. as you've seen, he's just traveling to sweden, denmark, and now the metal is and he explains to them what is the difference that would make on the ground. and i've been told that in these meetings, he's very calm. he's very deliberate. he comes with backseat, doesn't get emotional and they call the zalinski effect. he walks out and mines are changed and we've just seen that happen again. very do we take from this that escalation, that weird we had so much about in the war is no longer an issue for nice to have countries that or it still is an issue. and with many of these heavy weapon
9:05 pm
systems, the, the allies have asked to crane to promise to pledge not to use these weapons in russian territory. so they may not cross into russian territory with these just with the tanks, with some other of the missiles and, and they're, you know, they're not allowed to directly target russian giving russia an excuse to say, nato is now at war with moscow. so when the fact that we've seen these decisions continue to be made means that, that these governments, um, believe the premiums are keeping their word in does remain an issue. certainly, we'll see statements out of moscow if they haven't happened already saying that now nato is again, you know, launching more, escalating more on moscow. but i think that as we've seen, the russians continue there just relentless assault, not just on, on ukraine's military, but on civilians. and on the infrastructure of the country that simply the leaders who are helping ukraine understand that, that ukraine needs more assistance and that perhaps everything they put into the
9:06 pm
war so far couldn't be lost if they don't really healthy premiums get over this, this edge. so we have that decision, that's a big one. do we have any more details? the terry, on the deal itself? it's not exactly clear how many fighter jets and when they be going, the netherland says it has $42.00 of these just but that's in total. they need to keep some of them for their own defense. denmark, it has 19 and i've seen differing reports including some coming from president zelinski about how many will be coming from these 2 countries. so we don't know exactly how many we do know that they have to wait until the pilots are well trained until they can repair the address until they've got the facilities on the ground to manage the just and those things are underway. the premium pilots are being trained right now. these 2 countries, denmark and then the other ones are also asking other countries to join this coalition. we know that sweden is looking at perhaps providing some griffin fighter just so you will see more countries come into this coalition. which they sometimes called and burn coalition here at nato headquarters. and that's exactly what
