These numbers make literally no sense. Bulgaria's total active inventory of Mig-29's is 16 and two of those are two seat trainers. They also only have 14 Su-25 ground attack fighters. So this person is suggesting that Bulgaria is donating their entire airforce.


The Slovak air force only has 11 Mig 29's and that represents their entire fighter contingent.



Poland has replaced their Mig-29's with F-16's and future F-35's. So I would assume that the Mig 29's which were all retired by this year were sitting in a warehouse somewhere so that might make sense. But that number seems high.


It feels like this person went on wiki and googled Mig-29's and donated the entire airforce inventory of Eastern Bloc airforces.



Hard to believe.



Beyond that Ukraine started with 37 Mig 29's 8 of which are trainers. So this guys numbers make 0 sense on the donation side as Ukraine wouldn't have the ground crews or men to man them.
