Iraq Air Force, :lol: :shock: :lol: :twisted: :twisted:


FWIW, the Iraqi Air Force is abbreviated "IZAF". The Israeli Air Force is "IAF".


That is cool! Something that will standout for sure.

lol...sorry tim...IAF is kind of an inside joke as well. 15th FG 47th FS 7th AF probably is the first since the war to fly in this scheme.

IAF is also used for the Indian Air Force, is it not?

Is the inside joke due to identity "issues?"

no identity issues...just funny that it is painted as is on the AA website...and it can't be taken at face value. It is what it is.

Agreed - a joke based upon the "Twilight Tear" Israeli AF ID discussion.
