Ahmadinejad said at a Saturday ceremony broadcast on state TV that Qaher-313, or Dominant-313, showed Iran's will to "capture peaks." Watch out Eddie, they're gonna capture your peak!

looks like the Chinese weren’t the only ones to get those F-22 plans.
how anyone can say this administration is helping the US with a straight face is beyond me. I see the results of treason almost every day

It’s a mock-up. It has to be. Go look at the pics on the site, particularly those showing the canopy close-up. Note the amount of distortion and imperfections. Also, there’s not a whole lot of equipment in that instrument panel, to say nothing of any room in the nose for sensors.

It looks like a cheap prop made with plywood, elmers, and krylon semi gloss. Look how high the pilot sits in the cockpit. Not worried ...
To: Islander7
That photo and the first one at the link you posted screams “MOCKUP” to me. Look at the fit and finish on the nose of this “aircraft”. It looks more like the canvas skin of a Sopwith Camel rather than a supersonic air superiority platform.

Given Iran's technical prowess, I suspect it won't last more than 30 minutes in the air under its own power.
If it does, it won't last two minutes once it encounters one of America's best and brightest in the air.
You can copy the technology all you want, absent the knowledge, training and experience to use it, it's useless. Our boys will prove that easily if Iran's dumb enough to put one up against us.

At first I thought it was a small model plane. But from the close-ups with the man sitting in it, it looks like papier mache.

I thought it looked familiar by the nose section. At least it looks like just a model, don't think it could fly. n/s

Holy cow. This alleged fighter jet had better have some damned fine radar and exterior camera technology working for it. Because no pilot would ever survive a dogfight or land the thing looking through
that canopy.

Powder..patch..ball FIRE!
Looks like one of those knock off second’s windshields body shops used to install on wrecks.
To: Bloody Sam Roberts
It’s a fiberglass mock-up. A faux-fighter.

Looks like fiberglass lay-up (see where the light is shining on the side), rather than radar evading material...lol.
