Tehran to Unveil First Iran-Made Passenger Plane

[Aspahbod]

Actually no. Iran is going to manufacture an extended version called An-158 which has the capacity for 99 passengers. It would be called IrAn-158 then.

An-158:

Antonov 158 has a successful test flight in Tehran​

Antonov 158 was successfully tested. A Ukrainian made Antonov 158 passenger plane had its test flight in Tehran on Sunday. Iran has purchased an Antonov 158 and High ranking Iranian officials were present at the test flight to see perform. Iran may purchase more Antonov 158s in the future. If Iran decides to purchase the planes later, thirty percent of it will be constructed in Iran and Iran will be able to export it as well.

Ukrainian officials want to expand ties with Iran and do more business.

Antonov 158 has a maximum capacity of 99 passengers, maximum cruising flight speed of 870 kilometers and a cruising flight altitude of 11,600 meters and a service range of 2500 kilometers. Pilots have a good opinion of this plane.

In addition Iran has leased two Antonov 148s. The manufacturing cost of each An-148 unit, which can carry between 68 and 99 passengers, is estimated at between 18 and 22 million dollars.

No offence to anyone, but it appears that iranians are more hardworking and honest in manufacturing stuff as opposed to that of saudis who dont have much of a story to tell about manufacturing.

I didn't say we have a stronger manufacturing capability than Iran in fact I never said that. I always acknowledged that Iran is superior in this regard. However Saudi Arabia is also building strong manufacturing capabilities. Saying as our Iranian friends here put it "Saudi is a joke and are losers" is just stupid and unrealistic.

Following the Islamic Republic family planning clinics of the Shah were dismantled "on the grounds that Islam and Iran needed a large population." During the Iran-Iraq war between 1980 and 1988, a large population was viewed as a comparative advantage for Iran.

Although Iran's population boom started before the 1979 Islamic Revolution (in 1976 the fertility rate was 6 children/woman), Ayatullah Khomeini's edict led to an annual population growth rate of well over 3%. United Nations data show that Iran's population doubled in just 20 years — from 27 million in 1968 to 55 million in 1988.

At one point in the 1980s estimates showed that Iran's population would reach 108 million by the year 2006.

-----------

Following the war with Iraq, the death of Ayatollah Khomeini, and taking office of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and President Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, a sharp change was made in the Iran's population policy. Realizing "the costs of this burgeoning population were going to far exceed its capacity to provide adequate food, education, housing and employment", Iran's government "declared that Islam favored families with only two children", as one historian put it. Iran's Health Ministry launched a nationwide campaign and introduced contraceptives - pills, condoms, IUDs, implants, tubal ligations, and vasectomies

In 1993, Parliament passed further legislation withdrawing food coupons, paid maternity leave, and social welfare subsidies after the third child. Birth control classes were required before a couple could get married. Dozens of mobile teams were sent to remote parts of the country to offer free vasectomies and tubal ligations.

By 2001, an Iranian condom factory produced more than 70 million condoms a year, "packaged in French or English to suggest that they are imported", according to a foreign reporter. By this time Iran's population growth rate had dropped from an all-time high of 3.2% in 1986 to just 1.2%, one of the fastest drops ever recorded. In reducing its population growth to this level — a rate that is only slightly higher than that of the United States — Iran emerged as a model for other countries that want to lessen the risk of overpopulation. In 2007 Iran's Total Fertility Rate had dropped to 1.71 with a net out-migration of 4.29 ‰ (and population 65 M).

Explaining the change in religious doctrine on population during a birth control workshop in 1995, Deputy Health Minister Husein Malek-Afzali stated "Islam is a flexible religion"

-----------

A call for a reversal of Iran's existing policy of "two children is enough" came in October 2006, when President Ahmadinejad called for an increase in Iran's population from 70 to 120 million. Women should work less and devote more time to their “main mission” of raising children.

"I am against saying that two children are enough. Our country has a lot of capacity. ... for many children to grow in it. ... Westerners have got problems. Because their population growth is negative, they are worried and fear that if our population increases, we will triumph over them"
