, and defeating their standing army would be considerably more difficult than the offensive against Iraq in 2003. From what I remember, there wasn't a single piece of armor used effectively against the US in 2003.
And what make you think that the Iranis will use their armor effectively?
Muslim armies always try to engage their enemies with overwhelming firepower, moving slow into pre-determined positions, bringing to bear as many weapons as they can on their targets, in a constract to western armies, that prefer a fluid manouver, with some elements fixing the target while others outflank and envelop.

And as for the MOAB: Seeing as Iran isn't exactly filled with jungle, I don't see what this bomb can do that strategic bombing raids can't. What's it supposed to do in Iran; wipe out refugee camps? It's a not-so-fancy piece of technology that's supposed to inspire fear in the enemy and arrogance in Americans.
As I said, the Moab is very effective against infantry, especially if they only had time to build hasty defensive positions. The Moab is not limited to a jungle enviroment.
