French President Emmanuel Macron on Oct. 24 announced that his country would provide Ukraine with “additional Aster missiles, new training programs, and new Mirage” fighter jets in the coming days, without providing further details.
The Aster is a surface-to-air missile used in the SAMP/T air defenses. France has previously supplied Ukraine with the air defense system, as well as several Mirage 2000 fighter jets.
“We need to continue to step up our military support to Ukraine — air defense capacities, long-range capabilities, drones, and anti-drone systems,” Macron said.
