Replacing Variable file length column with fixed width file column

Hi, Iam new to unix. I have two input files.

File1:

ID Name Place
1-234~name1~Newyork
1-34~name2~Boston
1-2345~name3~Hungary

File1 is a variable length file where each column is seperated by delimitter "~".

File2:

ID Country
1-34<<11 SPACES>>USA<<7 spaces>>
1-234<<10 SPACES>>UK<<8 spaces>>

File2 is a fixed length file where Id is of 15 characters length and Country is of 10 characters length.

I need an output file such that based on ID file1 and file2 should be compared and Place column in file1 should be replaced by country column.

Output File:

ID Name Country
1-234~name1~UK
1-34~name2~USA

Thanks in advance.
