Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a telephone conversation with French President Emmanuel Macron, during which the two leaders discussed countering Russian escalation and strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities.
According to the Ukrainian president, Ukrainian pilots will soon begin training on French Rafale fighter jets in France, which will be an important step in the development of Ukraine’s combat aviation.
In addition, the conversation covered the preparation of a new package of French military aid, cooperation on localizing the production of French missiles and aerial bombs in Ukraine, and accelerating the deployment of the FREYJA system.

The French aircraft manufacturer Dassault Aviation conducted flight tests of two artificial intelligence algorithms on a Rafale fighter jet. These technologies could potentially be used in the future to improve the aircraft’s onboard systems.
It was previously reported that the French Rafale fighter jet will be equipped with combat artificial intelligence from Harmattan AI. This AI will also be used on Ukrainian Raybird drones manufactured by Skyeton, ensuring system compatibility and increasing operational efficiency.
