This is a complete shitshow unfolding before our eyes, not even sure how a Ukraine spring counter offensive can even happen without air support. |

User ID: 84164417 United States 03/17/2023 09:26 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Destroyed? Perhaps, as this is the risk all equipment in a war zone faces. The real question is, how many tens of thousands of Russian soldiers will be obliterated from the western munitions these aircraft will deliver directly on target, before they can be, as the Kremlin states, 'destroyed'? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 85455320 Well, they need to get from Poland to Donbass first, you think they will survive the trip? You really don't know much do you? There are Ukrainian planes and helicopters doing fine.... Ruzzian couldn't get them but they're gonna get these MIG 29s? Yeah, all 10 of them. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 71199170 Using mig29 for bombing sorties/ground support? You don't know much about aviation do you. Mig 29 is still quite capable plane if in right hands, but it is air superiority plane to fight against su27, f15... not to bomb ground targets. Yes, it can be used for this, but will be blown out of the sky ASAP if they try to do this. With its shitty radar? LOL. YOU are the one that does not know much about military tech. If Poland and Slovakia are sending original soviet stuff, then... God help us all. By the way, you missed the point. |

The largest War Games ever in history! WTF are we doing? Why are we doing it? We know exactly what they are trying to do, provoking WW3! The Republicans in DC better wake the fuck up or they are as guilty as the condemned Democrats! There will be NO WW3 Joe! None! I fear DC will be destroyed with all of you criminals in it! |

They dont have that many of all of their military planes put together. Russia currently have over 3600 active fighter jets, good luck.. Only a swarm of SU-35s will blow those MIG-29s out of the sky in a single day, MIGs wont even see anything coming. |

Soviet era aircraft don't have the computer architecture to accept NATO standard weapons. The interface would be difficult; however with a "crude modification", such as an e-tablet, it would be possible. Good luck finding pilots for this. |
