Kinda looks like fiberglass.

With a few of those "mat & resin" boat repair kits and the contents of my "dead computer junk" closet I bet I could make one too.

Curious that the stencils are in English.

Is it SOP in Iran to label things in English? The 313 is carrying English labels in the photograph. No Farsi?

Interesting that all the warnings and labels are in English? I thought they hated everything about us?

Subcontractors from the US? Works or not, treason, in one word.

It’s fiberglass, you can tell by the flow lines along the surface. No way that thing could even be a prototype, it looks similar to a clay mockup the design team constructed like we do for cars.

That gray box sticking out of the instrument panel might be one of your old CD-ROM drives; better go check.

Must be fly-by-instruments only. You can’t see through the canopy.

My first question upon seeing that picture is why are all the warning labels written in English instead of Farsi?

Yeah, the line there to the “Air Intake Cover” looks a bit like Bondo, gorilla hair, and some Testors model paint.
No way is that a pressurized cockpit, the canpoy doesn’t seal.
