Denmark celebrated the supply of its first F35 fighter jets from US plane producer Lockheed Martin with a ceremonial flyover on Sunday.
Thousands of onlookers lined the nation roads to get a glimpse of two F-35 jets that departed from an air base for a one-and-a-half-hour flight over Denmark, the Ritzau news company reported.
Crown Prince Frederik, Defence Minister Troels Lund Poulsen and different politicians and navy officers acquired a delegation from the corporate at Skrydstrup Air Base, about 60 kilometres from the German border.
The first 4 of the 27 plane ordered had been delivered in mid-September and are supposed to substitute the F-16 fighter jets that the nation has had in its stock since 1980.
Copenhagen plans handy over the decommissioned plane to Ukraine. Ukrainian pilots are at the moment being educated in Denmark to function the jets.
