Does the web site give any clue as to what date or month this was discovered?
Quote from the web site,
"The recovery of the advanced MiG fighter is considered to be an intelligence coup by the U.S. Air Force.. The Foxbat may also be equipped with advanced Russian- and French-made electronics that were sold to Iraq during the 1990s in violation of a U..N. ban on arms sales to Baghdad."
It seems that in every war or conflict we are involved in, we come up against FRENCH armaments of one sort or another
