Every suggestion on this webpage, for which a top view silouhette can be found, has been overlayed. No matches ... yet.

The Trident looks like a match. Not the best Trident silhouette, but I've superimposed half of it over the satellite photo, also chopped and rotated the horizontal tail into place over the other "structure".

Looks like a match to me.

Ya Done Good! My next thought would be a VC-10, Nah!

This 707 casts a rather strange shadow ;-)

Seriously, I don't think there's a need to look for zebras when you hear hoofbeats. Iraq historically bought a lot of Soviet aircraft, and a few French. The photo with Ritter looks a lot like a Tu-154 "Careless". It might make a good trainer given the similarity to the 757 seating.

Tupolev-154

Maybe. But the wing position appears more centralized in the drawing vs. the satellite photo. Too much of a discernable distance from wing root to engine cowling, IMHO.

Really great work; thank you.
