The Iraqi Armed Forces

they won’t allow that, US would operate it while communicating with Iraq’s forces


Its not just about that they will kill civillians for sure but they will use Iraqi airspace. Best way is to buy drones or cheap version from China or Russia and let the Iraqi army have full controll

dreaming but you get my point

Iraq’s ministry of defence confirmed on video that they are negotioating for armed drones with China, maybe Wing Loong so we’ll see.

( Additional equipment from the recent Russian deal ?), heat suppressors on the engine to minimize SAM infrared detection.

Do they have enough weapons?
Enough soldiers but not enough weapons, currently they are in no state to fight a conventional war against other states but only against terror.
Only ~300 MBT, little artillery.
I want to know about air force and Navy as well.
Air force & air defence is given priority now together with army air corps, attack helicopters & fighter jets being acquired.

Currently being acquired:

- Avenger stinger air defence
- MI 28Ne
- Apache deal on hold
- MI 35M
- S300 probably
- Pantsir S1
- T50 golden eagle
- F16

For the army new Russian weaponry & Kornet E ATGW
- 200 M2A2 bradley
- 175 more M1A1M

they have plans for fast attack craft for the navy as well but that is less of a priority.
