Increase funding for the RAF to better support Ukraine

Closed 142 signatures

What the petition asks

The RAF recently carried out F-16 training for Ukrainian pilots in collaboration with the Netherlands government, who are supplying 18 F-16 jets. This training should help bolster the Ukrainian counterattack in the Russian invasion.
With reports that the RAF's budget is set to fall in real terms, we are concerned that this continued support for Ukraine will be compromised. To ensure the RAF can continue delivering training sessions like this, and more, we want the Government to provide more funding.
