The President of Poland announced the transfer of four MiG-29 fighters to Ukraine

Date:

In the coming days, Poland will hand over MiG-29 fighters to Ukraine. We are talking about the first four planes.

This was stated by the President of Poland Andrzej Duda, the Polish publication reports Rzeczpospolita.

“In the next few days, we will hand over four fully operational planes to Ukraine. The rest of the planes are being serviced and prepared,” he said, without specifying the exact number of fighters that Poland is going to hand over.

Duda explained that Poland will hand over the planes that were used in air defense.

“We can say with confidence that now we are literally delivering these MiGs to Ukraine. We have a dozen more such MiGs. These are the MiGs that we received in the early 90s from the GDR army. These are the last years of their operation according to their technical capabilities,” the president noted.

The Polish leader emphasized that Poland will replace Soviet MiG-29s with FA-50 aircraft from South Korea, the first deliveries of which are expected at the end of the year, as well as American F-35s.
