Peshmerga

[Rando]

Does the Peshmerga have their own fighter planes or has the Iraqi army it togeather with the kurds?

None have fighter planes right now (Not iraq,nor Kurdistan).
however,iraq is buying 18 F-16 Block 52s (according to some sources,they will maybe even get AIM-9 missiels for their planes!). The first planes will arrive in 2014.

there is kurdish pilots in peshemrga and iraqi army but no deals have been signed or at least that we know of, there was the israel chief airforce commander in SK last year i think or early this year, apparently KRG is buying weapons from them and there is an article on this thread somewhere about kurds been trained as pilots in israel in return israel uses SK for intelligence gathering from iran.

KRG can also buy them and hold them like somewhere close lets say like israel in case of emergency it can be called in, maintaining it on another soil is not cheap but KRG can afford it.

Peshmerga Budget Next on Agenda in Baghdad-Erbil Talks



ERBIL, Kurdistan Region — After Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) renewed exportation of oil as a goodwill gesture toward the central government, tensions between Baghdad and Erbil seem to have eased.

Now, there are new attempts to resolve the Peshmerga budget issue, one of the three main issues between Baghdad and the KRG.

In the Iraqi constitution, the Peshmerga is described as the “Kurdistan Region’s guardian.” The constitution also regards the Peshmerga as part of the Iraqi defense system, and therefore its budget must be provided by the Iraqi Ministry of Defense.

However, the spokesperson for the KRG Ministry of Peshmerga says that his ministry has not received its budget from Iraq’s Ministry of Defense for the past five years.

Every year, during the budget debate in Iraqi Parliament, the majority approves that the central government must provide a budget for the Peshmerga forces.

Jabbar Yawar, the spokesperson for the Ministry of Peshmerga, told Rudaw that they have not received their budget from the central government due to the “suspension of agreements.”

Yawar estimates that the total budget Baghdad has withheld from the Peshmerga is around USD$7 million.

“Since 2007, a total budget of $50 million has been allocated to Iraq’s Ministry of Defense,” he said. “The KRG’s Ministry of Peshmerga was entitled to 17 percent of the budget, which makes for a total of $7 million.”

Hamid Mutlaq, a member of the security and defense committee in Iraqi Parliament, told Rudaw, “The Peshmerga budget issue has not been discussed by the committee.”

He added, “The committee is going to meet the officials from Iraq’s Ministry of Defense and the KRG’s Ministry of Peshmerga to discuss the disputes between the two and learn about the issues in detail.”

Mutlaq insisted that the issue must be resolved through negotiations between the central government and the KRG.

Hassan Jihad, a member of the security and defense committee in Iraqi Parliament, said, “This week, the committee will meet with the KRG Ministry of Peshmerga to discuss its budget issue, along with other issues, such as the disputed territories and discussing the previous agreements between the KRG and Baghdad.”

He added that the committee will hold a similar meeting with Iraq’s Ministry of Defense.

“We are optimistic that the KRG and Baghdad will resolve the issues just as they resolved their disagreements over oil,” Jihad said.

Yawar said that his ministry has not yet been informed about such a meeting with the security and defense committee, but added that if asked they would engage in the meeting without hesitation.

As invaders. Look to the history, Anfal, Halabja, Kirkuk.
