The Iraqi Armed Forces

[DESERT FIGHTER]

In 2009, my father was an Instructor at arty school & had students from multiple friendly states.

Including Iraqis, I was once shopping and this shopkeeper calls me coz he couldn’t understand what the an Iraqi officer & his wife wanted (it was clothing corner of the store).

They were shopping for local clothes, so after helping them find what they wanted, I asked him why they wanted to buy Pakistani clothes.

His answer surprised me when he said “it’s dangerous”, yes those days were bad but not US invasion bad lol.

And than ISIS emerged, and I remembered what the guy said.

Just sharing a story.

I hope the guy is alive and doing well.

I don’t know if anyone asked this, but are there any Iraqi military or police in this forum? I speak to a good amount on Instagram, but never really see them on here. Their feedback would be greatly appreciated

The PMU has way more armour than previously thought, especially because some of the Brigades have tank battalions outside of the formation of the Armor Directorate based in Tuz.

For the longest time, Tafouf Brigade (Brigade 13) was only known to have some GRADs deployed at the Syrian border. Now it's known that they have Armor alongside Brigades 26 and 313/314. Maybe others.

The PMU are also continuing with their ongoing rehabilitation project for their armoured units.

That Mi-28 has the weirdest nose of all the attack helicopters out there but goes to show you the Russian engineers don't care about looks and always consider function over form any day with any aircraft on any day of the week!

The nose contains radio guidance equipment which guides Ataka V
