    New aircraft IAIO Qaher-313. Whether it was originally a stillborn-deadborn aircraft, like the Su-57, or whether it is real, no one knows

    This Qaher it was just for propaganda only. As of Jun 2023 Finally often years of its initial unveiling in February 2023, it was announced by IAIO that the F-313 program would be reorganized into an unmanned stealth drone before it'd even had its first human-crewed test flight (and you well never see it flying too lol) 

    Look at thid photo I never send a jet fighting with this width and height. Screenshot_20230725_193818_Drive.thumb.jpg.3a37e7607ad2367d0c1128406127381f.jpg

    Other things like the Hawk missiles some how the US sold them to Iran during The Iran Contra Affairs. 

    To me Iran has big army and supported by terrorists groups from Iraq, Lebanon and Yemen as well as long range missiles and that about it.

  2. From what I now there is 24 operational but maybe less.

    Iran contends that they currently have 24 F-14s that are still operational and flight ready, with two that have even been upgraded to F-14AMs.

    These “upgraded” fighters have been modified to fly with reverse engineered, locally sourced, replacement components, as well as weapons systems Iran can reliably get their hands on.

     

    Of course this is what the Iranian are saying. 

    Quote

    Iran's inability to acquire new American missiles for its F-14s had led it to modify the jets from the 1990s to be able to deploy Soviet origin missiles, including the R-27 long range air to air missile and R-73 infra red guided missile. The R-27 was much shorter ranged and less capable than the AIM-54 the fighters were originally equipped with, but was also far smaller and lighter meaning it could also be carried by normal sized aircraft and on the F-14 would facilitate a much better flight performance due to its lower weight. The R-73's reliability and ability to fire at extreme angles, meanwhile, made it by many accounts the most capable short ranged air to air missile of its time. Although they improved the F-14's versatility, these missiles were not well suited to the Tomcat's primary mission which was very long range interceptions - something only the American AIM-54 and Russian R-33 and K-100 were well suited to at the time. This led Iran to eventually reverse engineer and extensively improve the AIM-54 domestically, which provided it with a similar looking but more capable missile named the Fakour 90. 

    Same here regarding the Fakour 90.  So what I will say that AIM-54 maybe not more the 20 missiles or so as they have used them up (what over was working) in the first Guld War.

  3. Collapse of the deal to buy Russian Su-35SE fighters by Iran. 
     • The Iranian Defense Minister implicitly confirmed that the long-awaited purchase of Sukhoi Su-35 aircraft had collapsed
     • One of the biggest reasons for the deal's failure was Russia's refusal to transfer technology, as well as provide support and maintenance to maintain the aircraft locally
