Then why is it "spiraling" in the vid although the target doesnt move?

Which part of the video does this "spiralling" happen in?

Agm-65e is laser guided which is not fire and forget model D,F&G are infrared guided which is fire and forget . The rest are electroptic which can be fire and forget but also can be guided in all the flight path.

What you`re seeing is the missile on the aircraft being pointed at the target and locking it up,you can then see the part where the weapon is released and the rocket motor fires,this release from the pylon is what probably causes the view to rock from side to side slightly [3.20],is this the "spiraling" that you`re talking about?
The seeker head has a gimbal system that keeps the ccd camera fixed onto the target even if the missile is maneuvering to some degree,thats why the target doesnt move.
You can see it in the pic below with the seekers camera turned to the left.

Whats also impressive is how quickly the target locks up,with the original tv camera based seeker it could sometimes take up to 8 seconds to lock onto the target.

Its a potent jet, but because of limitation of the size of F-5E nose cone, it can not house a larger radar than KLJ-6E/F or KLJ-7. Which means max BVR engagement options are limited to below 100 km.

Kowsar at best is another tech demonstrator or stop gap thing. Some 7-8 Squadrons can help IRIAF defend against regional foes.

We need larger jets with higher radar ranges and BVR options.

Iran has zero facilties in place to license build any fighter jet from scratch. Russia would have to build the entire infrastructure and supply all the equipment and train the engineers. Multi-year effort before the first jet gets produced.

It’s better to get ToT in areas Iran needs to push its domestic program ahead.

Iran has zero facilties in place to license build any fighter jet from scratch said The general Thelmmortal but it's very false. Once again, it is in the total field.

Zero is a bit exaggeration, isn't it?

Iran is already producing jet engines with different uses and mini Turbofan ones, also the required superalloys. It surely needs infras to do so. Problem is, we don't have those Items Mass produced in an industrial Scale.

Lack of will for logical reasons, lack of funding etc led to this situation.
