Germany grants Poland permission to transfer old fighter jets to Ukraine

Germany has approved Poland's request to send five Cold War-era MiG-29 fighter jets to Ukraine, which had been calling for the delivery of fighter jets to better defend against Russia's full-scale invasion. Although the MiG-29s may provide some relief to Ukraine, they are unlikely to satiate its demands for a powerful fighter jet coalition comprising US-made F-16s and F-35s, Eurofighter, Tornado, Rafale and Gripen warplanes.
