I'd almost totally agree with that. Have to call the KSA into question, if only by the fact that they haven't made it public knowledge the KSAAF has F-14 Tomcats, which the Iranian Airforce is happy to brag about...as badly in need of maintainence as they may be, leftovers from the days of the Shah they are.

P.s. I'm not quite learned about the South Korean Air Force when it comes to flying, but missed out on an interesting idea that came about during a convo about the USAFA. The Sec. of The Airforce aka "the manatee" in the USAFA boxing ring vs Grandmaster Jae Chul Shin. Formerly served in the SKAF. Though whoever would win is wayyyy too close to call...
