and also sejjil missile.
 
Which sejjil? Sejjil is Surface to Surface missile, isn't it? Maybe mehrab you would say?

during Iran-iraq war, iran found problems with phoenix missiles. then they started a project and changed the hawk missile systems and use it as an Air to Air missile. It was first iranian Air to air missile project.

sejill missile will no longer be needed once Iran gets a upgraded phoenix going. but seriously man...How long are they going to keep upgrading? they need to get rid of these planes and work their ***** off making new fighters...

Qaher was just a light, low altitude stealth ground, ships attack plane. We need a fighter plane which will accompany our coming UCAVS.
 
by looking at the painting the picture look a little old , these plans these days look like this

Interesting considering complete sanctions, in house spares could have been achieved but what would be the quality that is in question. Lastly how long will these Tom Cats Fly with 35+ Years old Engines.

i think it was the HAWK missile that was changed to be launch by f14 ...

Wasn't Hawk missile integration cancelled.
 
funny iranian rusty tomcats upgrade hhh from where u get parts to keep them running all these time
Hey have some respect... at least Iran is surviving sanctions, Tunisia is getting loans and aid, and can barely achieve what Iran achieved... you should be ashamed of yourself... and you do not represent Tunisians...
