Talks continue regarding the transfer of Polish MiG-29 fighter jets to Ukraine, and within this process Poland is discussing access to certain missile and unmanned aerial vehicle technologies, APA reports, citing the Polish Army General Staff.
According to the statement, the transfer of these aircraft to Ukraine is related to the fact that they have reached the end of their service life and there is no prospect of modernizing them within the Polish Armed Forces.
“It will be part of the allied policy aimed at supporting Ukraine and ensuring security on NATO’s eastern flank. The tasks of the decommissioned MiG-29 aircraft will be carried out by F-16 and FA-50 jets,” the statement said.
It is emphasized that discussions are underway with Ukraine regarding the provision of certain UAV and missile technologies to Poland in exchange for the aircraft.
“The goal is not only to compensate for the equipment but, above all, to acquire and jointly develop new defense and industrial capabilities,” the Polish General Staff noted.
