“Who is going to teach them how to fly those planes.”

Themselves. They already have F-16s

“Did we not give IRAN F-15s a decade ago but no replacement tires.”

No. We gave them F-14s 30 some years ago under the Shaw. Reagan stopped supporting them. Actually, Carter started the embargo after the hostage taking in early 1980.

Thanks for the info. I did not realize Egypt already had over 200 F-16s so “what’s a few more?” attitude.

How does Iran plan on stopping the Izraeli air force with Tomcats?
