[WW III ?]


In reality, though, it will probably just be ex-Warsaw Pact NATO members handing over their Warsaw Pact surplus. Plenty of mothballed Sukhois and MiG’s.

If they can get the engines started. Risky move to use NATO pilots - at the very least they disable the ejection systems, so they don’t get captured if shot down.

That is correct. Planes mothballed or planned to be retired.

Will cost donating countries very little.
