bennett Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Will the surplus Migs and Su's going to Ukraine be supplied with spare parts, I can't see uncle Vlad being too keen on supplying parts or will they just harvest a few planes for spares. This could leave the Poles and other countries short of planes until their pilots can convert to F16s or F35s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure NATO pilots get plenty of chances to train on American planes, who are desperate to sell them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ll just have to amuse themselves by hanging off cranes and drinking rubbing alcohol. Business as usual. To be fair, this can also be applied to Ukrainians. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
