Coalition Versus The Islamic State
What kind of hardware is being deployed by the international coalition against the Islamic State? Statista provided a rough estimate in its latest Independent feature, with the bulk of coalition airpower coming from the George HW Bush carrier task force in the Persian Gulf. The Islamic State is now estimated to have somewhere between 10,000 and 31,500 fighters deployed across Iraq and Syria.
