The UK is prepared to lend state-of-the-art jets to NATO allies who provide older Russian and Soviet planes to Ukraine, Defence Secretary Ben Wallace said today.
The government is under pressure to provide Typhoons to help in the battle against Vladimir Putin's invaders, with Boris Johnson among those clamouring for the move.
But the government has argued that Ukraine lacks pilots trained to use the specialist equipment - and it would require hundreds of RAF personnel to be "gifted" to Kyiv.
