The Argentine government has signed a contract to purchase 24 F-16 fighter jets from Denmark. The deal, which was signed in Copenhagen on Tuesday, is the culmination of a long process that began in 2022.
Argentina originally planned to acquire 38 F-16s from Denmark, but the deal was scaled back to 24 aircraft due to budget constraints. The jets are expected to be delivered to Argentina in 2025.
The acquisition of the F-16s is a significant step for Argentina, which has been seeking to modernize its air force for several years. The F-16 is a versatile fighter jet that can be used for a variety of missions, including air-to-air combat, ground attack, and reconnaissance.
The addition of the F-16s to the Argentine Air Force will significantly enhance its capabilities and allow it to better defend its airspace.
