Iraq Details Air Force Readiness
The Iraqi Air Force affirms its complete independence from the international coalition in executing its missions within Iraq, while continuing to develop its capabilities and establish an integrated air system. Iraq possesses advanced aircraft such as the F-16, T-50, and L-159, along with Iraqi reconnaissance and unmanned aircraft. A full daily aerial survey of Iraqi territory is conducted by dividing the country into monitored sectors, with the execution of air defense and ground attack missions. It is also emphasized that maintenance operations are carried out entirely by Iraqi personnel, with negotiations underway to purchase Rafale fighters to strengthen the Air Force. Iraq aims to build a large and regionally significant air force, according to a security strategy that includes modernizing the fleet and expanding capabilities.
