Perhaps or perhaps they're producing half a dozen to a dozen a year ? Is it that hard to believe ?

If I'm not mistaken Ir-140 had 52 seats and engine/design problems. recent simorgh had 6 ton capacity (6000/72=83Kg and no baggage no flight attendant) airplane passengers are a bit heavier than that with their baggage (no offense).So Raisi asked HESA to build a few passenger planes. Is he talking about the Antonov-140 ? Because honestly if Iran can figure out the issues behind the engine, then all of the grounded Antonov-140 planes can be made airworthy.
Aren't the engines for the AN-140 plane Russian ? Why can't Iran import them or license build them from Russia ? or find an alternative from China ? Because aside from the Russian engine, the AN-140 can also use a Pratt and Whitney variant as a replacement. Obviously purchasing turboprop engines from the west is out of the question but perhaps there is a Chinese alternative ?
Raisi visiting Kowsar production facillity, more Kowsar seems coming, I can see one with single cannon
