North Macedonia has donated Sukhoi Su-25 Frogfoot ground attack aircraft to Ukraine, Minister of Defence of North Macedonia, Slavjanka Petrovska said on 14 March, Janes reports.

Petrovska said that equipment delivered to Ukraine so far consists of "infantry weapons and ammunition, artillery equipment, MBTs [main battle tanks], Sukhoi aircraft, anti-armour and anti-aircraft weapon systems, and equipment and ammunition for use by the military aviation".

The announcement confirms Janes reports in July 2022 that four non-airworthy Su-25s (three single-seat Su-25s and one twin-seat Su-25UB) were transferred.

On 15 March, North Macedonian media outlets quoted government sources as saying that Ukraine has requested attack helicopters, and the possibility of the transfer of 12 Mi-24 ‘Hind' aircraft is being assessed.
