(Hell, it took me almost three months to become proficient enough to solo in a glider.) And I reiterate my point.
That 2-3 weeks thing was from a UAF Tweet. Here's what the article author said about training:

"Regardless of the outlandish claims that some are putting forward, including the Ukrainian Air Force itself, this process will take many months or even, in some cases, years to complete. "
