Yup. I muss confess that (among other things about selling all king of high tech gear to Irak) I wonder who is going to operate these birds. You don't train an attack chopper squadron overnight...

six on lease for training and followed by 24 new ones and 500 Hellfire missiles.
I guess they don't have a national health scheme or pension system....
