Does Iraq even have warships? Their navy would hardly qualify as a Coast Guard.

Don't you have to go to war to actually kick ass? Who is going to train them that has actually kicked ass? The Taliban still isn't defeated and US flies over your airspace at will.

a country that holds a record for shooting down more than 100 aircrafts with only 1 active squadron against a country from europe that was kicked the most at any level war including air war

Taliban if cant be defeated by NATO/America with more than 1 lac active troops and trillion worth cost than yes we pakistani are also not from space.

About the latter..they are allowed under the will of our govt.till 2010-11 the predators were in shamsi air base and operated from the same airbase.

It means Pakistan Navy's warships would have rotation rights from Iraq.

History books will write Pakistani intelligence's name in stone......how an organization of 10000 men defeated two superpowers within 25 years.. Why would we fight the US in the air where we don't have a chance,and not where we can get our objectives achieved ?

, there is no agreement but people already have started blustering. Again this news comes from Pakistani side and not Iraqi side. Deja Vu like that "tallest building in world in Karachi" claims. Likely to go to Pakistani Lies and Denial Thread.

At least they will teach them how to win war without actually winning it.

Guide me towards those history books. Last I remember, this was recorded in history books neatly.

I wouldn't know about that. But History will indeed remember ISI as the organisation that couldn't predict its own country getting hacked in two. Or the ISI that burnt its own country to singe its neighbour. Or the organisation that made 70,000 unmarked graves (read terrorist graves) in Kasmir possible, still failing to achieve any worthwhile objectives.

History will indeef never forget the organisation that humiliated Pakistan on the world stage like no other. Or the organisation that put every single Pakistani on the worlds terrorist watchlist. Whew, thats a lot of achievements for the ISI. Even the CIA or the KGB coulnt destroy their own country in such a perfect manner.

It does makes sense to send Iraqis to send their pilots to Pakistan.

Iraq bought F-16s from US lately and they need sign ties with someone to train their pilots. Since they cannot ask for Turkey and other country, PAF would be best option. PAF has operating F-16s since late 80s.

US sold F-16s Block52 variants for 165million a piece to Iraq, not including spare and training. Thats a equivalent price of a JSF-35.

funny part is that Pakistanis (as per them) have defeated two super power, but they have tried their level best for all these years and didnt take Kashmir from India.
