Wasn't "Imperial Iran" that had the best tanks?

they had chieftains... which at the time were pretty good.

Yes, that is what I meant. Better tanks (at least for the period) than they used/bought after their "revolution."

If anyone is up for another what-if mod, an Iranian OOB without the revolution could be quite fun. They had slated about 1000 of what would become the Challenger-1, and were expected to get fair quantities of LAVs, F-16s and other goodies.

Without the revolution they would probably have been one of the best equiped armies in the world. The amount of cool stuff the US and other were selling them was incredible. A well equiped Pro-Western government in the region would have change history quite a bit. No Hezballah. Probably no Iran-Iraq war. Without that no Gulf War I and who knows after that??? Interesting alternative timeline.
