Nope, pretty much anything other than a few helicopters got taken out 
in Gulf War I -- not that there was a lot left after the Iran-Iraq War. 
  The Super-Etendards that Iraq had were the biggest threat, and they 
got taken out of the game early in the '91 war--on the ground.  A few 
Iraqi aircraft were shot down during that war, but most never even got 
off the runway.
