You mean Iraq on its way into Syria.

Yes, sorry, my mistake. I typed quicker than I was thinking.

It seems the R is a much different aircraft to the SR. It would be hard not to believe that the electronics in it are much more modern and advanced to the older SR. It will be interesting to see how long it stays in the area and see how they are utilizing it.
