AI Summary

This bill directs the Secretary of Defense to develop a plan to equip and train Iraqi security forces and Kurdish Peshmerga forces to defend against attacks by missiles, rockets, and unmanned systems. The plan will include providing available equipment, such as air defense systems, and appropriate training to support the use of this equipment. The Secretary must commence implementation of the plan within 90 days, unless they determine that it would adversely impact U.S. military readiness, in which case they can delay implementation but must provide regular notifications to the congressional defense committees.
