Log inThe question is if anyone here had ever opportunity to even touch an iranian produced weapon so the question to our Iranian posters here if they have served or are serving in military or had any opportunity to lay their hands on them?

I figured I would just start a thread with any news regarding Iranian military advancements/news.
I'll start:
Iran Starts Mass Production of Home-Made Fighter Jet
I'll start:
Iran Starts Mass Production of Home-Made Fighter Jet
TEHRAN (FNA)- Iranian Air Force Spokesman General Hossein Chitforoush announced on Wednesday that the country has started production of its home-made Saeqeh fighter jets in large numbers.
"The fighter jet is now on the way of mass-production," Chitforoush said in an interview with the state-run news agency.
He reminded the double-cockpit model of Saeqeh that was unveiled last year, and said Iran now has several squadrons of Saeqeh, while the future generations of the fighter jet will even be more advanced.
In September 2010, Iran displayed the first squadron of Saeqeh in an air show staged during the military parades at the beginning of the Week of Sacred Defense, marking Iranians' sacrifices during the 8 years of Iraqi imposed war on Iran in 1980s.
In September 2011, the Iranian Air Force's first squadron of home-made Saeqeh fighter jets started operations during the large offensive air drills codenamed "Fadaeeyan-e Harim-e Vellayat III" in Northwestern Iran.
Lieutenant Commander of the Iranian Air Force Brigadier General Alireza Barkhor announced in February that the new model of Iran's home-made Saeqeh jet fighter would be unveiled in the future.
"We will fly the new model of Iran's new Saeqeh fighter very soon," Brigadier General Barkhor said.
Also in the same month, Iranian Air Force Commander Brigadier General Hassan Shah Safi announced that his forces had focused all their power and energy on building fighter jets as they believed that future wars were fought and won in the sky.
“It is obvious that future wars will be in the sky with massive air and missile raids; therefore, the Air Force has adopted a new approach and focused all its internal power on building fighter jets in a self-driven, but organized way,” Shah Safi said, addressing foreign states’ military attachés in Iran.
He said that the Iranian Air Force’s efforts had resulted in the building of Saeqeh fighter jets.
Yet, the Air Force commander reiterated the defensive doctrine of the Islamic Republic, saying Tehran had the narrowest military budget among the regional countries.
In recent years, Iran has made great achievements in the defense sector and gained self-sufficiency in essential military hardware and defense systems.
The country has repeatedly made it clear that its military might is merely based on the state's defense doctrine of deterrence and that it poses no threat to other countries.

It looked like it has side strapped booster rocket motors... it also looked like those booster rocket motors failed to separate... I suspect that is why the video was cut and we didn't see it fly off into the distance...

Thx for these informations. It is amazing, seeing what could be do Iran nowadays. I have questions please.
Could Iran produce indegenously its own jet fighters engines ? Do the Saeqeh's engines are new indegenous, or simply other motors from F-5 transformed into spare parts ?

Saeqeh's engines are indigenous and new but
operational time of it's blades are 30% less , compare to original blades
Iran's main problem is trust to weight ratio
and as you know j-85 is weak and underpowered
so for iran's future fighters
we need a Strong and reliable engine like Pratt & Whitney F100
there was an cooperation between Iran and Venezuela for selling the F-100's parts to Iran
may be we can see result of it in near future

Haaretz, as ABC, as Al Jazeerah, Al Arabya, Fox, Lemonde, Liberation, France television, El Mundo, Rai, CBS, CNN, BBC, Sky, Jane Defense etc...near all western medias are pure shit. In the past, I used to credit what Haaretz said, but I realized that near all are lies.
....Haaretz quoted Spanish newspaper ABC as reporting.
How could we take credit ? All western medias are instead of infoming people are merely reduced to peddle false rumors, lies. I defitively finished to read western medias , if I read them, with only with extrem cautiously. Regarding economy they lie, regarding history they lie, regarding culture they lie, regarding military informations they lie, regarding politic they lie, regarding technology they lie. Why should we read them ? If there is cooperation, between Iran and a tierce we will never know what, and how. Betweeen Iran-China, Iran-Russia, Iran-Venezuela, there are secrets.

Seems advanced enough to use it, with semi autolock on capability probably got that from RQ-170.

As Iran is able to detect F-22, but could not deter it, Iranian Air Force urgently needs, few hundreds of modern fighter-bombers like Mig-35, SU-34, SU-35 and few AWACS. Once these fighters are obtained, noone could think to attack Iran. No news about a potential SU-27 in Iran ?

T300:
Baseline carbon fiber used in aerospace applications.
T300 is known for balanced composite properties, high quality and consistency, reliability and availability of supply.
Available in 1K, 3K, 6K and 12K tow sizes.
Carbon fiber classes and weights:
1K The most intricate weave pattern, for fine detail and complex surface work
Available in plain or twill.
3K The most common weave, used in all industries,from motorsports to robotics and the aerospace industry.
Available in plain and twill weave patterns
12K Heavy-duty fabric, mainly used for flat panels or where structural rigidity is a must (marine,construction)
Available in plain and twill weave patterns.

I wonder what the prospects are for Russo-Iranian co-operation in defense industries and procurement.
Certainly, at least for things like carbon fibers, and some other non-sensitive technology - the Russian MoD should begin to take notice. Iran could be a good source for low-cost military materials.
