The government has approved the project and has given a green light to Minister Nenchev for signing of the intergovernmental agreement with the Polish side. The agreement aims to ensure the airworthiness of the MiG-29 aircraft owned by Bulgaria by providing repair works to 6 engines, as well as  providing two Polish engines for temporary use. The agreed price for the repair of a single engine is € 1,023,000. The first two Polish engines will arrive to Bulgaria some 20 days after the agreement is signed.
