UAE ? LOL Yes their airforce has excellent hardware but look at the Saudis in Yemen. Their armies are USELESS regardless of all the best military hardware money can buy.
Why is this ?
well mostly because authoritarian monarchies are extremely afraid of a military coup from within.
Because of this they DO NOT promote the most competent and capable soldiers to high ranks.
They're also afraid to give their military units freedom of movement and thereby limiting their response time and ability to take initiative on the battlefield, instead requiring authorization from the higher ups just to move an inch.
UAE has good hardware for their airforce but Iran has thousand of missiles and all of Iran's jets have been modernized and optimized.
Despite the quality of the UAE's airforce, all of their airfields are condensed in one tiny area. Iran could EASILY destroy their airbases, thereby rendering their airforce useless.
Also let's not forget about Iran's multilayered and extremely formidable air defense systems. They honestly can't do anything against Iran. Like Trump said "If not for us, you'd be speaking Farsi within a week" LOL

the arab state don't even have qualified military personal for that hardware most of their military is mixed with sudanese and some northafrican arab states. they rent pilots from the u.s. military. so imagine an army with foreigners how do think they will fight for a country which they don't belong to.
how did Iran failed we hathe most influence in the region even in those years. at that time we already had military personal and hardware all over the middle east.
