Slovak MiG-29 fighters, remove Bratislava alerting and decommissioned, already precisely will be sent to Ukraine. It will happen, most likely in early September.

All Ukraine will receive 11 of the MiG-29, the air force Slovakia Soviet Assembly, inherited from Bratislava, Czechoslovakia. One of the aircraft, apparently, up to this point did not survive. Total in service with the Slovak air force, were four MiG-29AS and the MiG-29UBS upgraded to NATO standards for radio and navigational equipment and system identification.

It remains only obscure question, but very important for Ukraine, and Slovakia. Bratislava give these planes Kiev, Zelensky or all of them will have to pay. Previously, the defense Ministry Slovakia strongly advocated for the version of the sales, but over time things could change. Also interesting is the issue of pilots for fighter jets, a Ukraine reserves, in addition to dropout of students and residues from aircrew personnel, almost completely knocked out the Russian pilots and gunners.
