Prvi Viper ocekuju u 2025...ako sve bude kako treba...
First of the eight purchased F-16s should arrive in Bulgaria in 2025
https://bulgarianmilitary.com/2023/04/19/first-of-.....a-in-2025/

Citat:The need for a modern combat fighter for the Bulgarian combat aviation, in the specific case the F-16, is becoming more and more tangible. Our army is facing the threat that at the end of 2023 our MiGs will not be able to fulfill their role. At the end of last year, the Chief of the General Staff of the Bulgarian Army, Admiral Emil Eftimov, expressed the opinion that Bulgaria will have to look for leased fighters to take over the role of the MiG-29 until the first F-16s arrive.

Citat:A similar impression is left by the fact that the former Minister of Defense Mr. Krasimir Karakachanov signed the report of the appointed internal political-technical commission for the selection of a fighter jet to the Prime Minister in 2019, in which the other candidate – the SAAB Gripen is rated higher in terms of technical indicators.

The delay of two years for the first F-16 added fuel to the fire, as the Swedish company SAAB was ready to deliver all eight fighters within 12 to 16 months. The then Prime Minister Borisov justified the decision to choose the F-16 with the fact that the Swedish company did not offer the armament of the fighters in the price.

Strašno nepoštovanje kupca: avioni plaćeni odmah (2019),isporuka odložena sa 4 na 7 godina ("zbog korone" ), nema dozvole za prodaju ili lizing polovnih (iako ima obučenih pilota), a povreda vazdušnog prostora od strane VKS, 2 puta mesečno, zahteva dizanje polu-ispravnih '29-ki i mogući udes, jer im se motori održavaju na "pomozi Bože", a ne na stvarnom održavanju i popravci...
Jadni bugari (ako tako mogu da kažem), glavni saveznik ih ne jebe 2%...

^ Nažalost ni Gripeni zbog hirovitosti švedske politike nisu pametna opcija za Bugare. Možda bi najbolje uradili da uzmu FA-50 i sačekaju kako će se geostrateška politika rasplesti, pa se onda uzme neki potentniji lovac. Svakako bi odustao od posla sa amerikancima zbog kršenja ugovora, naravno ako ugovor to uopšte dozvoljava, ko zna što su kilavi Bugari potpisali kad ih onako prcaju.

Ekomomski slabe male države kupuju sofisticirane lovce a da nikada neće iskoristiti ni 50% potenciala njihovog naoružanja.

Cesi ce im remontovati i delimicno modernizovati dva L-39ZA
Rusku avioniku menjaju sa zapadnom
Citat:Czech company @AERO_Vodochody has concluded a contract for the overhaul and partial modernization of 2 Bulgarian L-39ZA Albatros aircraft, including the repair of the AI-25TL engines, which will be carried out by LOM Praha.

During the partial modernisation, mainly the original Russian avionics will be replaced with Western ones, thus modernising navigation, communication, identification and recording equipment.
The overhaul itself will restore the aircraft's maintenance interval to 7.5 years or 1,500 flight hours.

Already in January 2023, the first two Bulgarian L-39ZAs were transferred to Aero for overhaul and partial modernization, now two more are following.
The contract is based on a framework agreement that was concluded in November 2022 and is valid for four years.
