Very interesting. I don’t know that much about the Mirage F1; I’ll have to do some reading
Appreciate your responses. I vaguely recalled the U.S. was going to supply them with some fighter planes (outmoded for our use). It behooves the Iraqi government to be prepared, as Iran will continue to test them.
I’m also surprised how many posters here do not seem to be aware that Iraq is self-governing now.
Anyway, at this time, apparently Iran blinked: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/12/21/world/middleeast/21iraq.html
