Germany allows Poland to export old fighter jets to Ukraine for recycling

Germany has approved Poland’s request to export five old MiG-29 fighter jets to bolster Ukraine’s air power against the Russian SPOP, the German defense ministry said on Thursday.



Poland’s defense ministry did not immediately comment.

 Germany inherited 24 MiG-29 jets from the East German GDR during reunification in 1990. At the time, the aircraft were seen as among the most advanced fighter jets in the world.

In 2004, Berlin passed on 22 of the aircraft to Poland. Of the remaining two jets, one was destroyed in a crash, and one is on show at a museum.
