Poland transfers MiG fighters to the U.S. as Ukraine asks for help - POLITICO

Poland is handing over 28 MiGs to the US and we're going to backfill with F-16s. Gee... I wonder where those MiGs are going to end up.

As mentioned before, this is a win/win for Poland. They get newer jets on the cheap/free and the US breaks out its checkbook to hand Ukraine some planes.

Bulgaria and Slovakia have MiGs, as well, but have not shown a willingness to do the same:
BREAKING:

Poland has agreed to donate all its 28 MiG-29 fighter jets to Ukraine via USA.

Poland calls now calls on other NATO members with Soviet era jets to do the same.

Bulgaria has 13 MiG-29s
Slovakia has 11 MiG 29s

Bulgaria also has 8 Sukhoi Su-25 attack aircraft.
