Mig-29s are not Su-57(Which is, arguably more of a 4th gen aircraft or an over glorified 5th gen). These are planes that Ukraine already has in its inventory and pilots for. You can argue that they have received upgrades that place them a notch or two above to what the Ukrainians are familiar with. But there is the possibility that these equipment will be stripped out, or what are not NATO secret, it shouldn't take too long for the retraining of the Ukrainian pilots.
Poland will probably receive F-16s, since they already have that in their inventory. They could also get massive discounts on the superior F-35s they already have on order, or an express order of F-16s Block 70(with a discount). The problem remains that Taiwan also ordered them, and they have China on their ass.
Most of them were up quite a bit in the last couple weeks. Lockheed for example (makes the F-35) is up about 25% and has stayed up. Some of the others fell back down a bit. Boeing didn't follow the trend. I guess everyone expects them to screw up whatever they make already.
it's not just Boeing's commercial side. They are 4 years behind on SLS, 3 years behind on their Starliner contract (it should have already had 3 crewed missions to the ISS), and they have no more engines for ULA, as all of their RD-180 engines are already designated for missions, they cannot buy more from Russia, and Jeff Who hasn't delivered on the BE-4 (which itself is 5 years behind). Boeing's favorite pastime is to secure cost+ contracts it cannot deliver on.
It will, with Japan(non-NATO, but has a substantial defense pact with the US), Denmark(NATO), Sweden and Finland all showing their interests in either joining NATO, or upgrading their armies even more due to Russia... It may be booming indeed.
I do not offer any financial advice, but I assume it will be booming.

Wow, is it time to invest in arms manufacturers? It sounds like business will be booming.
