The Czech Republic is preparing 16 aircraft for Ukraine. They are to be a terror for Russian drones.

Czech Republic will supply Ukraine with 16 Skyfox aircraft, as announced by Minister Karel Havlíček during his visit to Ukraine. Previously, four aircraft were agreed upon, and discussions with Prime Minister Serhiy Koreshko focused on delivering an additional 12. Ukraine has shown interest in L-159 ALCA light combat aircraft for drone combat. The Czech government had initially refused to supply these aircraft but is now considering L-39 Skyfox for Ukraine. Aero Vodochody produces around 12 Skyfox jets annually, with plans to increase production. The new Drone Hunter version aims to combat drones at lower operational costs. Czech firms are also looking to expand gas extraction in Ukraine, with MND already active in Lviv since 2014. Czech exports to Ukraine have surged, with a significant trade surplus reported for 2023-2025.
