Really Impressive thread....
Iraqi Army has done really great job at equipping its infantry and mechanized units with state of the art weaponry and other military equipment... Special forces and Infantry are Really Impressive.... Kind of Superb.
Im sure soon the armored units, Army aviation will get more power as well...
I think Iraqi Army should also think about other tanks for its army beside Abrams.... Aviation should adopt Chinooks as well....
Artillery & Radar units need special attention... Hope they are also going to be brought up to the best modern standard...
About Iraqi Air Force... F-16s, SU 30/35 should make quite an impact.... but the place for more lethal machines remains....
With 18 billion US $, You guys are doing miracles.... so i was imagining what if this budget increases from 25 to 35 billion US $ in the coming years......???
Over All, Superb work by Iraq in very little time and given the fact that Iraq is facing much more grave challenges on all fronts.....
Nice work brothers. SUPERB THREAD.
They buy the same weapon systems from different sources to make sure that spare parts/upgrades/ammo will always be available in case of an arms embargo, as Iraq is buying Russian attack helicopters, it is also getting the Apaches.
M1 Abrams, now looking for another tank.
F16 from the US + Possibly MIG 35 from Russia.
Same for other heavy equipment, Iraq is also looking to build a t72 (re)build facility from Czech, this way they will learn how to build tank systems and rebuild them on their own, this way Iraq will go on its way to building its own tanks in a decade or 2.
