The State Department approved the sale of F-16 fighter jet training, sustainment and equipment to Ukraine on Friday in the first deal related to the recently signed mineral rights agreement.   The $310. 5 million equipment and services being purchased by Ukraine will allow the US to earn credit in an investment fund established by the minerals deal — inked Wednesday — where profits will be split 50/50.
