Iraqi BTR4's

Looks like it's amphibious too judging from its propeller

September 2014 too far this month so great but I doubt it, I they go to china for j-10 or Russia mig-35 the plane is ready for delivery but they're so slow while Iraq might go to war soon.

Even if delivered this year before they will be operational will take a lot of time, the infrastructure, operational squadron as 2 F16s will be delivered per month once delivery starts still have to be formed.

36 F16s delivery will be completed in 2015 according to someone, we will have to wait.
Going to China/Russia same thing, they have to build the plane and pilot training takes years, around 3 years for fighter pilots ( NATO training ),

It's ok but I believe we we will cut the time in half plus all we need now more fighters to support the army plus bro think about it the americn didn't supply us with some good a2a missiles as you while Russians and Chinese will do with there best armament no doubt.

Currently a deal with Russia.

I hope for SU series instead of MIGS, SU 35 is possible, many think Russia will not sell it though Russia was about to sell SU 35s to Libya but the war of 2011 prohibited that sale along with S300s.

Whether they like it or not theirs nothing illegal about such deals, no one could stop them, maybe severe pressure from the world powers though very unlikely as they are the ones selling Iraq weaponry.

Iraq requested 4 strategic weapon systems besides the MI 28 and Pantsir.

1 : KA 52 ( confirmed )
2 : Most likely S300
3 : MIG 35, SU 30/35 ?
4 : Must be ( Long range ) radar systems

Though Iraq and Russia are not allies unlike Libya was with Russia for all I know.

KA 52 would be considered a strategic weapon system for its ability carrying the long range air to ground missile http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kh-25
