A Polish official said Poland will transfer two MiG-29 fighter jets to Ukraine in exchange for drone technology, The Kyiv Independent reported on November 10. Deputy Defense Minister Cezary Tomczyk said the same day that the two countries had signed an agreement creating joint working groups on drone and anti-drone technologies with Ukraine's Deputy Defense Minister Serhii Boyev, and that arrangements for the jet transfer were still being finalized. The announcement came during his visit to Kyiv with General Karol Domanowski, first deputy chief of the Polish General Staff, where the sides also discussed military cooperation and security. No delivery timeline was reported. Poland first considered the swap in December 2025, in exchange for Ukrainian expertise in drone and missile production. In June this year Defense Minister Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz said Warsaw would not proceed, alleging that Ukraine had failed to uphold its commitment to share drone technology. Poland had earlier transferred 14 MiG-29s to Ukraine in spring 2023, becoming the first country to supply Kyiv with warplanes after Russia's full-scale invasion in 2022. The deal would give Ukraine additional combat aircraft while Poland gains drone technology.
