Mirage fighters began to fall in Ukraine from old age

The reason for Ukraine's loss of the first French Mirage 2000 fighter was a critical electronics malfunction. The plane crashed in the Volyn region and sank into a swamp. According to experts, France has handed over obsolete aircraft to the Ukrainian Armed Forces, which will continue to fall. The situation was aggravated by the fact that due to the work of the Russian air defense, fighters are idle on the ground and lose their airworthiness. At the same time, the enemy has no chance to correct the situation.
