the largest air operations against airbases since 1967
Sounds like a very effective operation. Is there anywhere that I can
read more about the operations of the Iran-Iraq war?
There's not much in the west written about the aerial operations of
Iran-Iraq war but you can't go wrong with for example Tom Cooper's
"Iran-Iraq War in the Air 1980-1988", "Iranian F-14 Tomcat Units in
Combat" or "Iranian F-4 Phantom II Units in Combat". You should be able
to find these from Amazon. Especially the first book is very, very big,
crammed with interesting information and quite an eye-opener. Debunks
many, many western myths about the air war there and gives good idea
about the intensity of the air war fought.
