Thank you P

Hmm. Just wonder, do F-35's really penetrate Iranian airspace at what seemingly is a regular basis. Is this not what caused Gen Esmayeeli to tarry before informing the Supreme Leader of this (the first time). The radar returns must have been scrutinized very thoroughly causing this delay I...

The images below are screengrabs & some panel-beating of the Gen. Khajefared - CEO of Iran Aviation Industries Organization - interview. What is obvious from the center a/c is that its LERX and the rest of the wings looks to be similar to F-5/Kowsar. What does seem different to me is the...

Aha The penny drops. I nearly missed it. Grandpa AIM-7 through Aspide AAM to Aspide 2000 SAM + plenty of invasive surgery = FAAZ 2. Saved me from a certain facepalm. Thank you really. P

I knew that I saw the model bottom right somewhere. Found it at last. Enjoy. P

Greetings This is about the same method I followed for years whilst investigating my own countries nuke development program, Besides verbal hints etc.,. I scrutinized the two main Sunday papers down here - the classifieds - for jobs being advertised by Armscor, affiliates, contractors et al...

Thank, thus F-5 + F-20 on steroids + indigenous F-5 based iterations,+ Kowsar + its single seater with a single A/B RD-XX of 20 000lbs (~88,9 kN) per the Supreme Leaders 2018 directive, plus possibly delta wings. Lets call these wing Iranian Advanced Combat Wings (IACW) for now. Not clear...

I managed to tease out some clarity at least of the intakes of the model exhibited in the TV interview, above, viz:- What would happen if the V tailplanes are replaced by a single vertical one? And, what are the possibilities of the above a/c having any connection to the following image...

Greetings Fully agree with your first sentence. Regarding the last two sentences ...plane on the right .... and ...The long body aircraft... does this refer to the pic above with an RD-xx been tested, and to the right the 'long body' a/c. Regarding the last, would this represent a stretched...

If this is indeed a fake then it shows possible intent in the rendition of Damavand-2's multi-faceted EAGLE EYE's AESA radar (above). Since North Korea of late has shown a penchant of exhibition their new hardware, we much just get lucky. P

Agree Can't quite make out if those wings are delta's or not. Comments, anybody? P

Impressive to watch. An Image that caught the eye straight away where those of an unknown combat a/c. Any luck with i.d.? Also, Looks like Fakpor-90B (blue band)? P

Thank You P

Greetings Are there any specs (Length, diameter & weight) released for FAAZ-RF and IIR. I also found it puzzling why GIDS would feature a AIM-7 like missile as FAAZ-2. As far as I could ascertain the PAF never operated AIM-7. Just looking at FAAZ RF & IIR immediately struck me how 'modern'...

Greetings Updates, deletions, additions etc. uploaded to my Dropbox. In particular Parts 1,2,4 & 5. All welcome of course. Enjoy P

Agree Thank you. P

Would it be possible to build a low (for fighters) or a high-bypass (for IRJ-72 for instance) turbofan engine using TV-3 as a point of departure. Thanks Piet

Greetings. Regarding Shahid Saegheh (181) intruding into Israeli airspace twice, this must be very worrisome to AD's across the region. Any OSINT on these two occasions out there. Thanks P

Pertaining to the above mystery turbofan, bottom right, see also the cropped and enlarged image below:- Image cropped. PowerJet SaM146 https://mentourpilot.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/PowerJet-SaM146-SSJ100-Sukhoi-SuperJet-MAKS-2011_02.jpg Came onto the above purely by chance. A Jul...
