ah - so the fact that a second rate airforce [ iran ] rather unsurprisingly proved itself superior to a 3rd rate airforce [ iraq ] proves what exactly ?

iran did not fight EVERY soviet A/C type - and the migs you dismiss as inferior - were the same ones that the vietnamese used to good effect

all you are doing is reguritating hubris

Iraq had one of the largest airforce when the war started. Thier pilots were trained by the soviets and they had war more equipment than us and we were still able to beat them out of the sky, we beated all of their migs up to MiG-27 and almost MiG-29, i dont see Israel getting any close... were they able to destroy a whole Iraqi airbase with 8 F-4's and destroying 48 of iraqis migs in one day?....
