“There is no such thing as Russian or old airplanes, once they have been paid for by the Bulgarian citizens they are Bulgarian and will defend the territorial integrity and sovereignty of the country,” Defence Minister Krasimir Karakachanov said during an inspection, at Bezmer air force base, of the 8 Su-25 attack aircraft which underwent a major overhaul and modernization in Belarus.

The overhaul, alongside the 16 new engines cost 42 million euro. The new 6,000 hour flight resource is a good opportunity for pilot training,” Minister Karakachanov added.
