ISIS claims to capture Iranian drone.

Just imagine Iranians having a drone like the predator with rockets. Wouldn't they use it to save Assad's behind? Knowing the Iranians and how much they like to brag and show off, they certainly would have used it to show the world. Unfortunately for Iranian pride, in photoshop and with paper models Iran produces topnotch equipment but in reality they have to do it with this:

in photoshop and with paper models Iran produces topnotch equipment but in reality they have to do it with this:

They can produce top notch equipment except that they are too over eager to match every one and try to fake jumps over the rungs of the tech ladder. Iran had/has excellent programs like the Shafagh that are sadly sidelined in the news for Fibreglass Car stereo equipped Stealth Air Craft and replicas of drones that went down due to a Sycamore Leaf type slow decending spin due to the design characteristics of flying wings.

The ISIS getting the drone does nothing more than brings up loss of Prestige for Iran. But Drones are funny things and problems with them are not unusual. The predator had one crash per month when first deployed in Afghanistan.

the same thing turkey doesn't have ......


Shafagh that are sadly sidelined
its great to see your concerns for iran :lol:

but as i told you earlier for 100 times , and you apparently don't like to listen , Projects like shafagh are being followed pretty seriously .

you cannot just wake up and produce a new fighter jet , it takes enormous amounts of time and effort . unfortuanately only people who are from countries which actually manufacture fighters can understand that .


replicas of drones that went down due to a Sycamore Leaf type slow decending spin due to the design characteristics of flying wings.
well , i donno if it was really a sycamore spin or not , what i know is that iran is not attacked by US drones on a daily basis ;) that says it all about our defensive power , doesn't it ? ;)

BTW : how much slow are u talking about ? slower than 90km/h ?

are u kidding me ? loss of prestige ? :lol: a 1980s drone which was sold to a 3rd party (both syrian and iraqi govt.s ) has crash landed and its a "loss of prestige" for iran ?

good to know :)

Oh I listen, just dont find your argument of any logical or scientific worth.

Fighter aircraft can come about fairly quickly if the leadership will is there to focus on them and not a Fibreglass model.. but since Iran has decided to be happy with doing nothing more than home built copies of existing US designs..or Radio controlled Japanese Anime looking type aircraft.. you cannot understand that.Sometimes I think the damage "Achemed did not Ijad" caused to the Iranian R&D psyche is equivalent to that of the great purge of Stalin.

And yes, it is still a loss of prestiege regardless of the antique nature of the drone. The ISIS will use it as a media statement that they attacked the great "Shi'a" and "Bidd'ah" Devil. That in itself will reflect on the morale of ISIS and to an extent those that they attack like barbarians.

so a crash landed 1980s drone operated by a 3rd party , can be used in media by ISIS to claim that they attacked iran ? o_O

are u real ? how in God's creation ISIS can claim that it had anything to do with this ? a drone crash landed and they took it , and thats it .

what does this have to do with ISIS ? enlighten me :)


Fighter aircraft can come about fairly quickly
holy hell , only in PDF .....

you can produce a fighter jet "Fairly quickly" . of course thats the case if you want to JV a swedish piston basic training jet from 1970s and be happy about it .

but if you want to produce sth worth mentioning , be sure it takes significant amount of time :lol:

"Achemed did not Ijad"
alright that was a cheap shot :|

As I said, difficult for you to understand. The ISIS for e.g. took nothing more than captured Humvees and created massive videos out of it for propaganda purposes(much like Iran did with an earlier crash of a similar class UAV before the RQ-180 crash).

Again, your own example only effects Iran.. after all , if fighter manufacture was taken to be adding two tails to a US jet designed in the 1950s... Iran could do it. And fighter design does come by fairly quickly.. but only if you take it step by step.
The F-15 came out of the factory less than 60 weeks after the design was finalized. Why , because it was done step by step.

I see no news or proof of where the Shafagh project is.. not even in Iranian media. So for all intents and purposes its dead and fictional ideas like the Fibreglass Puny intake stealth fighter are paraded.

thats cause they could drive a humvee :| jesus christ :|

how can they fly a drone ? o_O

it was just "a little" more than adding two tails :lol: in any sort we did it , and it was our first step .

and we did it in 1990s . oops

U think you are talking to a kid ?

the McDonnell company started to work on F-15 concept in late 1950s , their proposal was accepted in 1967 and it first flew in 1972 BUT it entered service in 1976 :lol: :lol:

Please man , we're all grown ups here ....

for any country including the US , it takes a huge amount of time (a couple of decades) to finalize a fighter project :lol:

not even in Iranian media.

did u just claim u know farsi ? :|

@Serpentine the irony is that shafagh just made it to the news again this morning :D

Very philosophical Oscar bhai.

Very to the point.

I do believe I am talking to an ignorant person.

The twin tailed Saeqeh made its flight around 2001. The Azarakhsh had not gotten anywhere at the time.. Till 2011 there were still needs to update the Radar and Avionics on the aircraft..they even had to go back to the F-5 type intakes because the square ones did not work out(perhaps because the reverse engineered J-85 engines had airflow issues) . I dont need Farsi to gauge exactly where Iran stands by the rather bad reporting of its own state news agencies.

So if there was news on the Shafagh.. there is little proof that it has done more than anything other than be news on the local farsi media. Again, the idea of secrecy would make sense if Iran did not "reveal" the Qaher.. but the fact that they did means only two things.. both of which are bluffs; Either the Qaher is a distraction to hide the progress of more sensible projects like the Shafagh.. or that the Shafagh too has fallen to serious delays which needs fake weapons like the Qaher to distract..I am hoping that it is the former.


The F-15 was based off a design that was done in the mid to late 60s with the number MCAIR 199. I wonder how you came up with the idea of the 50s when the RFPs were not even finalized by 67.
As I stated, I dont consider you a child.. just ignorant

And then the Dajjal Caliph Goat Al Bakri will ride on the drone to invade the world.


Actually it is a two way street.

Dajjal Caliph Goat Sunni Mullah rides a drone to conquer the world

AND

Dajjal Caliph Goat Shia Ayatullah rides a drone to conquer the world

And

Pakistanis get entered from behind by both Dajjal Caliph Goat Sunni Mullahs AND Dajjal Caliph Goat Shia Ayatullahs

sadly.

because we are too much into Islamism and socialism.

I think we need to go easy on our engineer and aerospace enthusiasts from iran.

They want to do a lot.

but they neeed to keep Mullahs and Ayatullahs happy at every cost.

Would you rather make a cardboard fake and keep Mullah happy?

or tell the damned truth and get your @rse hauled to jail by the baseej goons?


What choice would make Oscar bhai?

What choice?

Their wish to do a lot should be coupled with Honesty. At no point do I doubt their potential, but rather decry its wastage over propaganda purposes. Iran has a LOT more potential than what they are being foolishly committed to by their leadership.
