In your opinion, do you think if Iran gives up it's nuclear program the West will remove the sanctions?

Simply untrue. Picking between 2 pre-determined candidates with no policy differences is not democracy. https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/perspectives-on-politics/article/testing-theories-of-american-politics-elites-interest-groups-and-average-citizens/62327F513959D0A304D4893B382B992B#...

The pre-Maidan government did, the post-coup government is pro West. That article is from 2005 and as far as I know no sales or cooperation has taken place since the coup.

Could be that or M163.

No, it's still under development

It's pretty common in rural areas to use wells for water, not have indoor plumbing, and essentially live in not much more than a trailer. Plus limited access to services like healthcare, you can be driving up to 4-5 hours for doctor's appointments. The highway system is well developed that's true.

All that is now is the flag of the monarchy, Iran doesn't need a king, the people should rule.

What's a mid tier city to you?

No they can make AESA radars just not in large numbers as demonstrated by the fact they have only made 6 Su-57s with Byelka AESA radars. 24 Su-35 is an even more useless number than 60. All this discussion is based on rumors, planes like Su-30 are relevant to the discussion because we cannot...

Yes exactly, it's not a question of whether can make an AESA radar at all but whether they can actually make them in numbers to deliver to a potential buyer. How many Byelka radars/Su-57s have been produced? 6? We're not dealing with the Soviet Union anymore, Russia is putting rubber blocks...

What is the name of the bottom right drone?

All treasures looted by English should be returned with reparations.
