Python-2 (more correctly Shafrir-2) looked quite similar to AIM-9, but was very different missile: different motor (15 cm instead of 12.7 cm), different warhead (11 kg instead of 9 kg), different guidance. Python-3/4/5 differ in everything.Beside the color, it does not seem to be the same thing.
How about these which are basically the same:
American Aim 9 B and Israeli Python 2:
FarsNewsAgency -
according to farsnews, the anti ship missiles will be installed on all IRGC planes and vehicles and naval units
ZAFAR AScM 2. - YouTube
What's the speed and weight of the warhead?
good to know that it's radar guided but I personally prefer that Iran builds missiles with cable guidance that are totally safe from the US powerful jamming technology, we should build them and have numerous launchers in our coastal waters.
This should certainly put a few holes in Aircraft carrier

Could this be the Iranian version of the C-704?
I'm tired of your ignorance:Crap. Python was a copy of Aim-9. Just look at those pictures above.
I'm tired of your ignorance:
Python-1 and 2 never existed there are Shafrir-1/2. As I said Shafrir missiles had different sizes. They had 15 cm diameter compare to 12.7 cm for Sidewinder, difference warhead and guidance.It is you who is ignorant. You have purposefully deleted out Python 1 and 2 which were copies of AIM-9. It goes to show that you are lying. Python 3, 4 and 5 were later on improved and redesigned on European technology. But you started off by copying Americans and begged for the technology from Americans and funded your projects by American tax payer money while you were never under sanctions as you have bribed the US congress and senate. Iran is doing it under sanctions and with their funds not by begging money from US and EU.
