In purely technical terms, the U.S. could be seen as first, since no other country had the sophisticated technology that the U.S. gave Iraq.
Um... by the time our technology goes to countries like those, they've been outdated for at least 10 years. Only a select few countries such as Britain, Israel, and a very select few of NATO countries had access to first-generation systems. The stuff we sold to Iraq we had already long since sold to Japan, Saudis, Egypt, hell even the Philippeans. They could have gotten it from anyone else, by no means was it that advanced.
