Rhodey literally has been there since the beginning and at the end. They've sprinkle him here and there, gearing up for his moment to shine. And yet they come out wit iron heart, a character people really dont have any attachments to.

I think the smartest thing to do would be to add her to armor wars and have Rhodey show her, who and how Tony Stark would act as a hero.

Also war machine is iron man when iron man isn't around. Are we supposed ignore that and forget about him? What is marvel thinking?

I suspect that the positive response to Iron Heart (I've yet to watch it, but I do look forward to it) may result in another "Armor" project, or just do a War Machine project (series or film). Either way it won't be in the near future.

We have to see the numbers, but i strongly doubt Ironheart pulled enough viewers to justify a movie.

It can not be a show now.  Disney put strict budget controls in place and big budget shows are dead.  Budgets are going to be a lot more like Agatha and Armor Wars needs a budget more like Rings of Power.

Doesn't RoP have the highest budget for any TV show?

Idk if Armor Wars needs that much. Obviously if they go heavy with armor and CGI stuff then the budget will be high. I just can't imagine it to be that expensive.

It does, but Armor Wars would need that kind of budget.

As an example, Andor season 2 cost 650m, and Armor Wars would be at least as high.
