Qaher - 313 , ready for taxi , test flights

Can someone explain me what type of Aircraft Iran is expecting with the Qaher-313?

  • That thing is really small, nearly the size of Trainer/Light attack aircrafts. -> small fuel tank, low payload capacity.
  • The air inlets are on the upper side which is not really smart if it should perform close maneuvers.
  • The front is not big enough for modern radars.
Don't even mentioned the weird wing shape and engine part.

Its 4th gen light fighter with some stleath feature witch is going to replace our F-5 fighters ....

Just first step to renew low-end of our air force ....

For replacing f4 and f14 our air force asked su-30 witch i doubt russian accept to sell us
 
just f-4s, f-14 will serve for another decade atleast. also tomcats radar range is 360 while su-30 has 200 km range.
lets be honest here in modern era iranian airforce is loaded with junk and that also very very small numbers . you guys need some 300-400 brand new advance 4th gen fighters

could you please elaborate why f-14 is junk??
 
could you please elaborate why f-14 is junk??
yeah sir why not

it was made by US GRUMMAN aerospace . and iran have very limited capabilities to create spare parts avionics and systems . so what iran did is canabilzed few to keep flying few f-14 . there is no direct support maintenance upgrade or any type of support from USA since last 40 years . so they are what they were in 1980 . no fighter jet can go fight 40 years after its manufacture to a new plane . lets be cool here and think what if these 24 or 28 active f-14 face 50 f-16 block 60 or 50 f-15SA what will happen ? you can think only .phonex sparrow and hawk are not missiles of 21th century sir . today is era of amraan pl-15 and r77 . in every aspect f-14 is obsulate tech . yes they can be good if USA take them back upgrade them structurally avionics and electronics and weapons systems . but its impossible .just keep them flying is not an achievement .
 
and iran have very limited capabilities to create spare parts avionics and systems
so how they are flying??
there is no direct support maintenance upgrade or any type of support from USA since last 40 years
true
so they are what they were in 1980
our f-14AM upgrade contains upgrading AWG-9 radar, RWR systems digitalizing cockpit, resolving the engine stall that original f-14A had and upgrading it's internal jamming unit.
no fighter jet can go fight 40 years after its manufacture to a new plane
US f-15 are older than our f-14s and they are still kicking like our tomcats
the number is based on cia estimation and it's true because we grounded our f-14 due to it's operational cost but in case of war they will not stay grounded
f-14 face 50 f-16 block 60 or 50 f-15SA what will happen
f-14 has the ability to track targets as far as 360 km that number for f-16 is 280 and for f-15 is 300km. f-14 is more maneuverable than both (max AoA=76 degree,turn rate=14.5 degree per second). also our phoenix/fakour missiles have top attack capability (ask any pilot you know there is no way to out manuever a top attack missile). fakour has 5 mach speed with no scape zone of 85 km AMRAAM is mach 4 with no scape zone of 60 km. AMRAAM active radar homing range is 25 km while fakour has 50 km of active homing. fakour has lock on jammer capability AMRAAM A,B don't have that. so you guess what will happen
phonex sparrow and hawk are not missiles of 21th century sir . today is era of amraan pl-15 and r77
and fakour:-):-)
in every aspect f-14 is obsulate tech
dude the reason US retired f-14s is death of USSR. f-14 designed to kill soviets mig-25s and maneuverable su-27s while f-18 is designed to bomb children. an f-14 can eat an f-16 for breakfast you are underestimating f-14.
but its impossible .just keep them flying is not an achievement
dude they are not fling with salawat and reading quran or prayings. we are producing spare parts for them. we were producing since first years of war with iraq.
 
Question which always pops up in my mind...for how long Iran would be able to fly Tom Cats and Phantoms.? Do Iranians have replacement of such heavy duty bomber/fighters ? Can Iranians buy any new class of fighter from Russia or China? Qaher looks good but i don't think that such light weight fighter would be a able to completely cover defence requirement of Iranian airspace. They need a proper replacement of their old American aircrafts.:coffee:
 
the result of recent confrontation between IRIAF f-14 and RSAF f-15 (tomcat locked on it from 150 km and eagle turned back toward arabia):
IRIAF old f-4 confronting USAF new super hornet over iraq (all the phantom would do to hit hornet was firing an AIM-9):
our old f-4 with bayyenat radar (330 km searching range):

our old f-14 beats super maneuverable mig-29 (27 degrees per second) and super agile f-5 (with turn rate of 17.5 degree per second) in dissimilar air combat training:
 
just f-4s, f-14 will serve for another decade atleast. also tomcats radar range is 360 while su-30 has 200 km range.

Tomcat radar is belong to analog era which mean its not quite good against fighter with low rcs and can be jammed , especially by the maker of radar and her allies ....

could you please elaborate why f-14 is junk??

please try to see the reality , F14 era is over .... its 45 years old fighter which serviced us in 8 years long war ... the only reason we didn't retired F14 is because we are under arm embargo and can't buy or build good fighter to replace it in high quantity ....

bro i'm not making AF decicions, they will not replace f-14 with su-30s. the US itself will use it's 4th generation fighters until 2030 why would we retire our best interceptors?? dude US f-15c which is tasked to protect their main land uses analog systems. digital does not mean the plane is more capable, it means the pilot will be more comfortable using that system. bro actually the type of radar has nothing to do with detection range of stealth targets but the range matters.

dude our f-14s are not the same planes that we recived 4 decades ago. f-14 is better than f-16 and f-15 in it's worst day. i'm not saying this because we use them, i'm saying this because it's true.

we are producing 80% of tomcat by ourselves.
 
Getting ready for high-speed taxi ...



Toy planes can't fly !

Light years ago you called Iranian drones RC toys too ...

We are trying ... By ourselves !

Instead of begging another country to design and develop a fighter for us and call it indigenous ! :)



Time does wonders ...



Everything is Iranian ... Even the J-85 engines onboard !

This is a demonstrator



Sheikh !

We don't need help from others like your fatass !



He means Chinese Fc-1



Bro ... This is a demonstrator !

Like Lockheed Have Blue :

It's not a joke !

This is a troll war ...
