Default Re: Whats left of Iraqs Military?

More recent equipment is going to be added to this, like the whole batch of BTR-94 Guardians bought by Jordan, or original equipment left behind by the Polish contingent as they leave the country, including Mi-24 helos.

I had heard about the DoD's plans for supplying the new Iraqi army with the heaps of surplus US equipment mentionned at the end of the article, even since the last days of the war; I don't know if that was ever anything official, but it looks like the armored division-style dream has been blown away by the need for an efficient counter-insurgency force.
