Went to post they could not be tracked by radar originally but was then told they can be tracked with the newer radar but give out a low signal.

Do you think that the Iraqi's have obtained the radar that can track these planes from say the Chinese? We know that the Clinton administration sold upgraded radar and the rest of the kitchen sink to the Chinese -- would assume the way they, the Russians, French, and Germans are acting they all sold items covered by the embargo that enhanced Saddam and his military.

I would plan as if they did have the better RADAR equipment. The Iraqis just imported more SCUD missiles from North Korea (under the ruse that they were bound for a buyer in Yemen). They could easily save their best "toys" until we believe we have air superiority.
