Fake stealth plane: Iran photoshops super jet, jet still can't fly

In what appears to be an attempt to convince the world that it's ready to play with the big boys when it comes to military prowess, Iran unveiled the Qaher-313, a "super jet" with "state-of-the-art" technologies and "radar-evading" capabilities.

The only problem? It's totally, completely, fake. And now it comes with a fake photoshopped background, too.

That thing has very short wings, takeoff and landing speed must be very high.

:p

IMHO...

The Canard doesn't have enought span or chord to be effective.

The thick wing which looks like a Clark Y Airfoil must have more Drag than a barn door, not to mention a Span Loading not worth a darn since their is no Span.

You could teach Boy Scout some basic Aerodynamics and they would come up with a better Planform with a good Mentor helping them...

I’m surprised it doesn’t look like Barak the flying horse.

The light reflects of the (fake) planes surface in the picture, so much for stealth technology, if the light reflects of the surface, so will a radar signal! Stealth BS

What a joke!

Fundamentals of stealth:

1. Size
2. Shape
3. Apertures
4. Material/coating
5. Treatments

Can’t do much about #1, but #2, and #3 seem to fail, as does (from other pictures) #5

Cant tell on #4 but highly suspect.

Looks to be at least a 6 or 8 spike design. IR signature probably high just based on observation.

exactly what I was thinking, and what is that downward angle at the end of the wings supposed to accomplish?

Qaher-313 (Persian: قاهر-۳۱۳; also Ghaher-313, Conqueror (Tamer)-313, Q-313, F-313)

Everyone remembers the highly successful Qaher-303? Class? Anyone? Buehler?
