Containers transporting Azerbaijan's MiG-29 fighter jets may be en route to Ukraine.
In recent discussions, military analyst Yuri Knuotov has raised concerns about the potential transfer of MiG-29 fighter jets from Azerbaijan to Ukraine. The MiG-29, a type of Russian-origin military aircraft, could potentially complicate the actions of forces in the conflict zone, according to Knuotov.
It is important to note that the actual transfer of these fighter jets has not been confirmed. However, it is known that Ukraine took operational control of up to three former Azerbaijani MiG-29 fighter jets, which had been undergoing repairs at the Lviv Aircraft Repair Plant in Ukraine before Russia's full-scale invasion in February 2022. These jets were originally sold by Ukraine to Azerbaijan between 2006 and 2009.
The transfer of these jets appears to have been either a formal handover or tacit approval by Azerbaijan amid deteriorating AzerbaijanβRussia relations, though no official public announcement was made. The MiG-29s, still in Azerbaijani camouflage but bearing Ukrainian insignia, have since been used by Ukraine to strengthen its air force.
Meanwhile, Russian forces have started attacking Ukrainian forces using FPV with large drones. The platforms reportedly used for these attacks include VKontakte, Odnoklassniki, Telegram, Viber, and WhatsApp.
If the MiG-29 fighter jets were to be sent to Ukraine, they could potentially negatively impact Russia's actions in the conflict zone. This is a view shared by Knuotov, who believes that the MiG-29s could complicate the actions of forces in the conflict zone if they were to be sent to Ukraine.
It is also worth noting that the suggested destination for these fighter jets, if sent, is via Turkey. However, the exact conflict zone to which Knuotov is referring is not specified in the text.
In conclusion, while the transfer of MiG-29 fighter jets from Azerbaijan to Ukraine is a potential action that has not been confirmed, the implications for the conflict zone, as suggested by military analyst Yuri Knuotov, are significant. The MiG-29s, if sent, could potentially complicate the actions of forces in the conflict zone and negatively impact Russia's actions there.
