Wow, that's a huge infusion at the same time Russia is transporting in plumbing repair vans for reinforcement.

It’s about two squadrons worth of MiGs (9.12 and a couple of UBs) that were due to be replaced anyway with F-16V. It’s a great gesture for sure and I love how the Poles are leading NATOs response but let’s keep things in perspective.

Worthless if they don't have the pilots to fly them and the crews to service them


What's the equivalent of sour grapes in Russia?
Bitter beets?

They do have the pilots.

And the crews, because they’re the same planes that Ukraine has.

Poland to supply the U.S. with its entire stockpile of MIG-29 jets, free of charge.

The planes are then expected to be shipped to Ukraine.

The Polish government asked other NATO members to follow the country’s example.


I f-ing love it! We donated these planes, they are not ours, if you have an issue take it up with Uncle Sam.

If they didn’t have pilots I’m sure the planes wouldn’t have been sent.

How many? I've looked around but perhaps they're not disclosing the number. Hopefully enough to inflict a lot of damage on the bad guys.


I've looked around, too, and can't find a number.
