http://www.aljazeera.com/news/middleeast/2012/11/2012111092311614537.htmlThe Iraqi defence minister has denied media reports that a $4.2bn package of arms deals with Russia was cancelled due to corruption concerns.
"The deal is going ahead," Saadun al-Dulaimi said at a press conference, following comments by Ali Mussawi, a senior adviser to the prime minister, who said the deal had been scrapped.

Lockheed Martin Aeronautics in Fort Worth will keep building F-16s for at least four more years, thanks to an $830 million contract announced late Tuesday to supply 18 of the highly successful jet fighters to Iraq.
It is the second group of F-16s for Iraq, which ordered 18 in December 2011. At that time the Pentagon had said it planned another batch for Iraq but had not said when that might happen.

The potential deal is expected sometime in 2014 and could come just before another expected agreement is reached with Saudi Arabia to buy Bradleys in 2015. The Iraq contract would provide recently upgraded M2A2 ODS (Operation Desert Storm) variants to the Baghdad government, the same vehicles that the US Army National Guard uses.
If the deals eventually go through, they’ll follow on about $4.3 billion worth of contracts the Iraqi government has requested in recent weeks from the US government for 50 Stryker infantry carriers, helicopters and air defense systems.

Eipä ole pahan hintaisia, kun ottaa vielä huomioon kaikesta muusta kiskotun törkeitä hintoja.
Ymmärrän kyllä Irakin innon hankintoihin. Tuolla alueella tullaan sotimaan vielä jatkossakin. Tulee pysyttelemään kriisipesäkkeiden kärkikaartissa öljyn loppumiseen asti. Sitten hiljenee.
Eli kohta ISIS saa ilmavoimat....
