obat17- Iraq

[Marcello]

I hope this could be turned into an "official" iraqi OOB discussion thread on the model of the obat44,obat37 etc discussion threads .

For a start:
apparently the iraqis had some light ERA kits and deployed them operationally during OIF

A thing that I find rather puzzling in the iraqi OOB is that after 2000 everyone and his dog gets an RPG-7V with penetration value of 60.While they may have received some advanced rounds via smuggling I doubt that they would be so awash in them to the point to issue them en masse to the regular infantry.
If that was the case AFVs losses to the insurgency should have been much higher.
Is that for gameplay purposes?
