As readers of this blog know, the Iraqi Air Force has continued to advance and prove itself. Over the weekend, the Iraqi Air Force moved a shipment of Iraqi Army vehicle parts via helicopter airlift for the first time from the Taji National Depot warehouse to Al Kasik, Iraq. The equipment was transported on Iraqi Air Force Mi-17 helicopters.
