There was a version of AirCrack for it at one point I believe.

You can't put the wireless card in monitor mode, and iOS is not based on Linux
at all.
Just because an OS runs a gnu shell doesn't mean shit. Do you understand bash
was first released in 1989, years before Torvalds even released Linux v0.1? It
was made for RichardStallman's fail GNU OS project.
iOS uses xnu as the kernel just like Darwin/OS X. It's HAL framework is IOKit,
an implementation of NeXTSTEP's DriverKit but in C++. Other parts are based on
CMU Mach. The userspace code, networking stack, among other things is based on
FreeBSD. More importantly, every kernel extension used with xnu in iOS is
closed source, unlike in Darwin/OS X (though most are closed in it, including
everything wireless-related.) Do you see any mention of Linux on there?
Everything listed predates Linux. Anyways...
tldr; You aren't going to be putting an iOS device in monitor mode. Yes there
is a build of aircrack-ng for it, but that app has nothing to do with sniffing
wireless networks; just cracking the resulting dump. You can compile that for
about any POSIX compatible OS.
