Poland has received another five F-35 jets from the USA, bringing the total number up to 8. Another 6 are expected before the end of the year, followed by 12 in 2027 and another 6 in 2028 and 2029, bringing the total to 32. A few days ago, Poland appeared on a U.S. list of potential Foreign Military Sales customers for the Boeing F-15EX but Poland’s Defense Minister @KosiniakKamysz has said that Poland plans to buy another 32 F-35s instead, bringing the total number up to 64. The Nordic and Central Eastern European countries located near Russia are acquiring F-35s in large numbers, preparing for joint air operations against Russia if the Russians would ever attack NATO. In total, these countries are expected to have 279 F-35s once all deliveries have been made: 🇫🇮 Finland - 64 🇵🇱 Poland - 64 🇳🇴 Norway - 52 🇩🇰 Denmark - 43 🇷🇴 Romania - 32 🇨🇿 Czechia - 24
