The Aircraft used during the Gulf War (Iraqi Aircraft)

It is important to take a look over the Aircraft used during the Gulf War, specially because this war was practically fought and won from the air. The Iraqi Aircraft was made up by a group of Russian planes that were very strong and fast. Actually, these planes were sold to Iraq by the USSR in order to use them for the war against Iran (1980-1988). Some of the Iraqi aircraft were: the Mig 21, the Mig 23, the Mig 25, the Sukhoi 20 and the Mirage F1. The number of planes was around 600, which was too little, compared to the US Armed Force's number, a fact that led to the Iraqi defeat.
