You must be joking. The MiG 29 is crap on many levels. Now the new variants of the Su-27, thats a different story. The F16 is the perfect choice for Poland; interoperable with NATO, simple to fly, bullet proof maintenance record, and really dirt cheap in the big scheme of things. They will do well with this aircraft.

We should sell them the F-16I, the model sold to Israel and India.

The early Mig-29s had inferior range & payload-the newer ones have overcome many of those shortcomings & are as good as any new fighter out there(barring the F-22/35).Anyway the Polish F-16s will be flying alongside their newly recieved ex-German Mig-29s!!
