#1 Bundeswehr anti-tank Milan missiles?

Are these to knock out the U.S. supplied tanks ISIS got from the Iraqi army when they bugged out?

#2 Mobility kill is what they will try for with the Milan vs M1. But against the usual "technicals" it will be quite effective.

But its not what they need most. The Kurds need 1) reliable logistics, and 2) Artillery.

#3 The Kurds appear to be a motivated fighting force. They may be the only people who can really be counted on.
