My brother, you are correct to a certain degree. However, I have sat on a dinner table since I was about 7 years old (my early consciousness of war talk at dinner table with my family) next to individuals in the AF or Army Aviation or training for either. Yes, we can be brave, and we are brave...

I have called just about everyone I could get hold of, THAT MAY KNOW, so I can get confirmation about Iran's PRECISE deal for purchase from Russia, be it Su30/35 or any other platform. As usual, I could NOT find out anything with certainty. Iranians (most, not all) would love to say, "I know, I...

VERY well said. Hence why Iran needs to have a fighter jet of its own, and able to do cost effective training, further R&D development, and a competent support and training industry of its own.

Thanks everyone for replying. What TheImmortal said above, " Iranian defense contractors and military complex would LOVE to see up close and understand. ", I have actually heard this so many times in the last 5+ years from so many people whose family members are in Iran, in IRIAF or retired...

Great, thanks. I still don't see (searching sources) an exact match specifically indicating WHICH aircraft type, do you have sources for this at all? Did Bagheri actually say ... SU35 or SU30 ? tnx

A source in Iran has confirmed that Iran's new government and IRIAF have decided and completed the process to get a batch of JF-17 over the next 8 years, with upgraded engine. Does anyone have any sources that can confirm this or has anyone else heard of this in the last 24 hours? Thanks.

As SalarHagg mentioned, there is more speculation than there is actual/factual confirmation that Iran has ordered or if so, it will indeed receive Su-35s or Su-30s. With regards to this, it is hard to decipher fact from fiction, since there are a lot of political reasons why lying is introduced...

More is coming ...

That's a shame. More than ever, we all NEED to work together to get our RIGHTS back from those that are well practiced in "DIVIDE AND CONQUER AND MAKE YOUR ADVERSARIES WEAK TO TAKE FROM THEM".

WOW. Xerxes jan, really appreciate and respect your passion. Please do NOT go away again. We need you and we miss your perspective. I am not 100% sure if Bahram Esfandiari is banned or not, but it seems so. I certainly miss his perspective on things. Please DO NOT FALL into the trap of...

I have watched this two dozen times, LOVE this guy talking at 11:34 describing his views and how he treats his co-workers, in the video ... --

Regarding Iran's new SHORAD that looks like an old Tor-M1 ... I read that SOME of the posts here are based on disappointment with Iran copying an old technology. May I be allowed to offer a different PERSPECTIVE here: I use a software for my work even these day that I got from work some 20...

I am sure my friend, you and I, and all of our brothers here in this Iranian section of this forum, KNOW that Iran needs to move its @$$ quickly and get going with building a strong military, the AF is a component of it. The Turkey/Israeli/Azari and all of our neighbors are gagging for a beating...

Love your idea here, and I hope Iran can do this as you hope for. But I see a few things that concern me. First, if Iran is going to put everything it has into a CFM56-5 mega project, then I would ask them to also use the core to develop 30,000lb thrust F101-GE-102 which would be an incredible...

Grabbing some lunch at work, let's see if I can address some of your great points in your post. Wished you were here, I could take you out (my treat) to a great fish restaurant in Seattle and we could brainstorm an engine for Iran, and talk about it for 10 hours. I will try to address a few...

Good morning my friend. It's about 6am here in Everett WA. I'm getting ready to go to gym and then off to work, so I'll make it short and quick. JT8D is well within Iran's capabilities. They know this engine like the back of their hand and even get the few necessary parts, easily, from outside...

I wasn't suggesting Iran build this aircraft. It is way out of Iran's capabilities let alone viability. I posted this more for fun. Thanks.

MAY BE made in Iran soon, (hehe) but we don't know yet.

REST IN PEACE, you great man. Delightful shomali-speaking accent, he had. "Sarivee rica, Sarivee kija, bamardeshee, khane nadari baneshee?". Lovely man of honor (in fact the medal) and courage. Everyone who knew him thought highly of him. I heard many, many, nice stories about him. He took...

Hate to break it to people, but I have to say ... TURKEY has some serious financial issues as well as internal military issues. It can do great actually, IMO, militarily for a short period of a time, but then they will run into problems. Not my assessment, but someone whose job it is to know...
