Poland to hand over MiG-29 jets to Ukraine. Kyiv asks about their technical condition
Published
Poland plans to transfer MiG-29 jets to Ukraine. Information about this decision appeared in Polish media and has aroused great interest both in Poland and in Ukraine.
The MiG-29 is a Soviet fighter aircraft that served in the Polish Air Force for many years. Ukraine also uses these machines, so they are well known to Ukrainian pilots and specialists. However, aircraft of this type are already old, and their equipment is not modern compared with the latest designs.
Ukrainian military personnel and experts are primarily considering the technical condition of the aircraft being handed over. It is important whether the jets are ready to fly, what their engines and systems are like, and whether spare parts can be easily obtained. How quickly the machines could be put into service depends on this information.
Details about the number of aircraft and the timing of the handover have not yet been fully disclosed. The matter is still being developed, so it is worth following further information from the Polish Ministry of National Defence and the Ukrainian authorities.
