"1. In NKoreans have fought on t34/85s and IS-2s, which are of course great tanks, but were already obsolete by then - in SU they've been massively brought out of service by that time. The only modern thing there was MiG-15 which showed themselved quite nicely AFAIK."
The Mig-15s were piloted by top WWII aces, and got smacked down by F-86s at the rate of 10:1.
"Anyway, overall war ended with a stalemate, isn't it?"
That's irrelevant to the question at hand.
"2. Vietnam - again only SAMs and MiGs where anyway modern. Even without mentioning the difference in the overall number of aircraft on both sides, can't say it was an easy ride for you."
You said, "When has the US ever faced modern soviet systems?" The Mig-21 and SA-2 were both very modern systems during the vietnam war. Therefore Vietnam qualifies.
"3. Iraq - don't make laugh. What iraqy piece of equipment was modern in 1991, not even mentioning 2003? Name just one for a start. It's all been obsolete."
Well in 2003 the Iraqis used the 'state of the art' GPS jammers supplied by Russia.
During ODS the Iraqis had all manner of modern Soviet equipment, from the Mig-29, to various air defense radars and SAM systems.
