This is only a scale-model made by the modeler F. Shammas. It is his impression of what the F-16 would have appeared like in Iranian service had it been received as was previously planned.

To win a war you have to will and bravery not tanks uber modern jets. Plus, our enemy is the US not a regional country and you can't beat them in their own game. Even if we had modern jets, they would still come out on top. My ancestors didn't conquer half the planet without using their brains. We didn't hold half the planet back with modern weapons during the imposed war.

Mohammed Hossein Fahmideh

Hossein Fahmide[1], (Persian: محمدحسین فهمیده) (born 6 May 1967 in Qom - killed 30 October 1980 in Khorramshahr) is considered a hero[2] in Iran and an icon of the Iran-Iraq war. According to his official life story[3] by the Iranian government, he was a 13 year old boy from the city of Qom who, on the outbreak of war in 1980, made his decision[4] to leave his home without his parents knowledge to go to southern Iran to help stopping the invasion of Iran by the Iraqi army [5]. In the besieged city of Khorramshahr, he fought side by side with older Iranian soldiers[6]. At one point, Iraqi forces pushed the Iranian troops back as they were passing through a very narrow canal. Many of the Iranian troops present were either dead or wounded by the heavy Iraqi attacks. Hossein Fahmideh, therefore, took a grenade from a nearby body, pulled the pin out, and jumped underneath an Iraqi tank, killing himself and disabling the tank. This stopped the Iraqi tank division's advance.

Ayatollah Khomeini declared Fahmideh[7] an Iranian national hero and a monument to Fahmideh was erected on the outskirts of Tehran, a place of pilgrimage of young Iranians.[8][9] In the years following Hossein's death, murals where erected throughout Iran, book bags displaying Hossein were sold to children, and a postage stamp was issued for his memory in 1986[10].


we had nothing but will to survive.
