There were all sorts of 'special briefs' in 1990 to which you refer when some of the ex-Soviet equipment belonging to former East Germany fell under the gaze of the NATO Allies...
Some of this came at a very good time as Saddam had gone to the USSR to buy his arms after the West stopped selling him anything of use (apart from the French, with Mirage and Roland). If the Berlin Wall hadn't fallen in 1989, I wonder if the outcome of the Air War would have been slightly different?
