Sounds bogus... You do not take highly trained aircraft techs and send them as fodder for the cannons. Even Vlad wouldn’t be that stupid.
Well, if none of the MiG-29s are flight capable, it’s normal for maintainers to be reassigned to the infantry.
Odd how NO MENTION of just how many MiG-29s could still fly.
Tell me again why we are spending so much money in this shizhole of a country?
Well, in World War II, Germany finally had to take ground forces, give them guns, and send them to the front. That’s how Pope Benedict got his job with an antiaircraft unit - he replaced a trained adult who was sent to serve as infantry.
On a side note - how many MiGs does the Ukranian air force even have left to service? It’s not like they are going to be getting new MiG 29s from Russia to replace losses. Maybe they can pick up some from India?
At least they aren’t firetruck repairmen.
Ukraine’s “ Air Force” has been decimated early on by Vlad….a nonentity…on another note, what happened to all those F-16 Wonder weapons Ukraine received?
……they went the way of of all our M777’s, Strykers, M116’s, Bradleys, M1’s, Leopards, etc, etc….such a waste.
