Crazyinsane have you got the web link for the images of those iranian images ?

cheers

Unfortunately I don't. :( I got these pics off a forum called pakmilitary.net. And to Schumacher, these missiles will come in handy if Iran decides to equip the Iraqis with these. I think that these missiles have a slant range of about 4 miles (quite wicked for a hand held missile).

Yes, they also may have some use against slower cruise missiles as I corrected myself above.
I think it will be straight forward for the US to destroy most of the nuclear sites. The interesting part will be how Iran & Syria react to shipping in the gulf, Iraq & force the US to get deeper than they would have liked.
That's when these SAMs will come in real handy.

As to some who ask how good they are, Igla is also used by the Singapore Forces. To me, that's a sign it's very effective. :)

Igla is a good air defence missile. Also, does any of you here know if Iran has SPAAGs( Self-Propelled Anti-Aircraft Guns ) like ZSU-23s, Tunguskas, and Pantsirs?

I think that they have the ZSU class guns but I am not sure about the other types.
