The Iraqi Armed Forces

[Doritos11]

Currently Iraq is the " 2 side alliance " but not on military part so not really to be called alliance either.

Billions of defence deals with the US, oil deals with China, the country should at least have some basic military capabilities before any alliance.

Btw, J10 is better then Rafale ? it looks the same from the outside, not known with the rest of the aircraft.

That is a one-sided alliance, your idea will make isolate Iraq with all countries hostile to China. You may manage to have good relations with both.

I'm not quite sure that we could compare Russia defense industries with China's. All I know is both countries are good, but I will never make an agreement with the Russians at all. Their history is full of flaws and tech bugs.

Personally, I favor China over Russia

That's exactly my point ok may be the words strategic alliance looks big but I mean some special relation ship with them.

I believe Chinese can help us reestablish military and technology transfer step by step we can start @ least with the UAVs we in urgent need to this kind of hardware to fight terrorists in there territories.

France could have helped them a lot with Mirage- F1s like form a fund from EU states to buy F1s from other countries and upgrades all of the Iraqi and other bought F1s for Iraqi Air Force and I am 100% sure that this would be a cheaper and reliable way to operate air force.

France was not part of the coalition of the willing therefore they did not get a share in the booty of the Iraq war. Hence they are getting US F-16s

France tried to rip Iraq off selling Mirage F1s with a very expensive pricetag..

On 11 July 2013, AMI received information that Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, accompanied by high-ranking
Iraqi Navy (IN) officials, discussed with the Russians the possibility of procuring three missile boats (fast attack craft
- FAC) from Moscow.
This same report stated that the Russians have no intention of
selling missile boats to Iraq as “they have other priorities
regarding arms sales to Iraq.” AMI’s source believes that these
priorities include medium-range air defense missile systems,
helicopters, and fighter jets.
Because of Russia's lack of desire to sell FAC to Iraq, source did
indicate that al-Maliki intends to contact other ambassadors in
Baghdad with the intent of making a similar request for FAC.
AMI believes that top contenders for the FAC program will be the United States under a Foreign Military Sales
(FMS) program (possibly the Ambassador III design currently under construction for Egypt), the United Kingdom,
France and Italy. Fincantieri of Italy built four Assad class FAC for Iraq in the 1980s but were never delivered to the
regime of Saddam Hussein and were subsequently sold to Malaysia and renamed the Laksamana class.
If a supplier is able to be found in the near term, AMI anticipates a construction contract could be in place as early as
2015 with three units commissioning by 2019.
