#1 IRAN has repor already deployed 1500 troops to Syria - likely safe to say that more will be coming.

OTOH iff Iran expects to be a "US-style", "US-par" OWG CoSuperpower, then IMO it needs to make sure it has a strong, vibrant Military-Industrial Complex befitting a Superpower such that Putin's FlyBoyz won't the only ones engaging in direct CAS + Air recce, etc. over Syrian, Iraqi, + Afghan = AFPAK? skies.

* E.G. LUCIANNE > PUTIN'S WAR IN SYRIA NOT GOING WELL SO FAR.

* TOPIX > PUTIN EASES/CUTS BACK ON AIR CAMPAIGN OVER SYRIA, SETS UP "HOT LINE" WID ISRAEL.
