Its authors refer to the photo MiG-29, published the day before in the X-account “Status-6 (Military & Conflict News)”. The author of the photo notes that the fighter, which is now used by the Armed Forces, has an Azerbaijani camouflage.
“Status-6 (Military & Conflict News)” said that as of the beginning of a full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation in February 2022, three MiG-29 Azerbaijani Air Force were repaired in Lviv, and their further fate was unknown.
“Some claimed that they were destroyed by Russian blows. As it now turns out, at least one of them is in working condition,” the post said.

The War Zone explained that the camouflage scheme for aircraft characteristic of Azerbaijan combines blue, gray and purple-gray. In the photo MiG-29, apparently (if the photo is not mounted), performs a combat mission with the air-air-air-range Air R-27 (AA-10 ALAMO) and low-range R-73 (AA-11 Archer).
Journalists note that there are assumptions that Azerbaijan could unofficially provide Ukraine with military support, including in the form of high-precision bombs and 82-mm mortars.
