Gift from neighbors: Ukraine received broken MiG-29 aircraft from Poland and Slovakia

In recent weeks, Poland and Slovakia have transferred eight MiG-29 combat aircraft to Ukraine, many of them turned out to be faulty.

Despite this, experts note that the transferred aircraft will become a valuable resource for Ukrainian aviation, as they can be used as spare parts for other MiG-29 aircraft.

In addition, it is worth noting that the aircraft transferred to Ukraine are not the newest models and were previously used by Poland and Slovakia.

Also, the transferred aircraft will require additional costs for their maintenance and pilot training, which may create additional financial difficulties for Ukraine.

 

The MiG-29 is a Soviet and Russian multirole fighter-interceptor that was developed in the 1970s at the design bureau of Mikoyan and Gurevich. This aircraft has high maneuverability and is capable of performing tasks both on the air and ground fronts. The MiG-29 was used in a number of conflicts, including the war in Afghanistan and the first Chechen war. He still serves in the air forces of several countries, including Russia, Ukraine, India and others.
