Minor correction:  Iraq has never been equipped with the F14 Tomcat.  Only Iran
apart from the US Navy purchased the aircraft.  Iraq has never to my knowledge
operated an American manufactured aircraft (apart from civilian helicopters
purchased for civilian use and then re-equipped for use as military aircraft).
