 Here's a naive question.  Apparently the  Iraqi Airforce has on occasion 
flown up to meet incoming allied planes, only to head north once allied
planes weapons radar has been engaged.  My question is this.  Is there 
anything that the Iraqi's can learn from this?  That is, is there anything
about radar frequencies, etc? that they can learn, that they might not
otherwise know?  If so, how valuable is what they can learn?  That is, to
what end, if any might they be able to put it?  And what would it take to
enable them to put it to that use?
