The Swiss Air Force is continuing to suspend training operations with the F/A-18 fleet. It was not clear on Friday when operations with the F/A-18 fighter jets will resume.
An army spokesman told the Keystone-SDA news agency that it was not yet possible to say. Specialists are now being consulted to determine whether the problems with the oxygen supply affect individual aircraft or the entire fleet. However, the fleet can still be used for air policing, the statement continued. Operational readiness therefore remains guaranteed.
On Thursday, the Defense Group reported that pilots had noticed irregularities in the oxygen supply in F/A-18 fighter jets in recent days.
