A Look @The Fleet Of The Ukraine Air Force. Thanks to a tip-off from NATO and new advanced weapons, the Ukrainian Air Force has survived two years of war with Russia. 2-years ago, on February 24th, 2022, Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered his troops to invade Ukraine to remove the leadership in Kyiv and supposedly de-nazify the nation. At the time of the invasion, Ukrainian Air Force was vastly outnumbered by Russian forces, with experts saying it would probably only last for a few days before being defeated.
In the early weeks of the so-called "Russian Special Operation," the Ukrainian Air Force had around 128 former Soviet Union aircraft that could help defend Ukraine's territory aircraft included following planes:
50 x Mikoyan MiG-29 NATO reporting name: Fulcrum, a twin-engine fighter aircraft designed in the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union developed the plane during the 1970s to be an air superiority fighter capable of matching the American McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle and the General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon. The MiG 29 entered service with the Soviet Air Force in 1983.
