Before Iran, you must stop the biggest terrorist countries which are delivering so-called democracy to other countries. ;)

[VMFA117_Poko]

I first time hear about it I must confese. Looks like combo of F-5 with YF-17 or F/A-18 (YF-17 comes straightly from F5 in matter fact). And You say TorwaK it has russian avionics? Man, what a mongrel.

About presence in Iraq and Afghanistan - good will or oil war? You can't judge anything from watching tele news. We know nothing exacly. We can read between the lines and trow the speculations but we can't be 100% sure. So stop that argue. It's pointless. We know now wich side you're on. Enough.

[sp0nge]

Look at the first link, Post #22.

 

It looks like a modified MIG-29 fighter to me.

 

Is this for real??? Lol

[Groove]

***ALARM*** ***ALARM*** All pilots to their jets. ***ALARM*** ***ALARM*** Political flamewar incoming! ***ALARM*** Scramble immediately before this Airbase is closed! *** ALARM***

 

Ehm, regarding this new Iranian fighter: "Cannonfodder"

[vadIL]

I wont get into it... Cause it will never end...

 

And its nothing about sides!! And I dont care about politics!

And i prefer USA then any 1 else!

 

So I would want to see this smart guys sitting in Iraq and playing LOCKON!

while this dictatorship govement ruling you'r life!

Exactly Poko, its combined F-5 with F/A-18. Iran Air Force gave it name "Azarakhsh" it means "Thunder" in english and it developed by Russian scientist help, so all avionics on plane made by Russian.

 

F-5 have big problem about range case cause of carry low fuel quantity. An example Brasil modified their own F-5 planes, added CFT (fuel tank on body, like F-16 Block 52+) and changed the name of it F-5BR. Moreover Brazillian F-5BR 's have FIAR Grifo F radar, Elisra RWR, GPS and laser INS, Honeywell H-764G navigation system, HUD, HOTAS, HMD, Rohde&Schwartz brand new ERJ-145 system to communicate with AEW&C digital datalink, digital electronic warfare system also new chaff/flare system, new flight display system, cockpit oxigen produce system, new Martin Baker Mk 10LF ejection system, A-A Python supported. Btw I can tell you that Brazillian F-5BR plane have the same avionic systems which used for 4,5th generation planes like Rafale, Eurofighter or Su-30MKI.

 

 

 

* Brazilian upgraded F-5BR planes with CFT tanks.

 

In my opinion Iran built the "Thunder" with all these technologies.

 

I don't understand what they talks but this plane what you look for;

[AlexHunter]

This plane is similar on F-5 only with two Kiel. On the account of Video of the new Iranian plane it VITYAZ-2000, The citation: Unlike JSF, "VITYAZ" is aimed at a gain of the markets of the CIS, Central Asia and the countries of Pacific region.

The given project have probably sold to Iran, created this project the private company in Russia. http://www.paralay.com/lfi.html

Thanks TorwaK for info. It's really new for me.

Brazil still wants a totaly new fighter, and its not by chance either. Everything I heard about the F-5BR tends to indicate that it is very dependent on other assets to operate namely datalink with AWACs. Without it that planes is very limited on its own. Just imagine a scramble call. It would have to wait for other assets to be online.

All F-5 variants have always been undepowered except the F-5G or F-20 Tigershark, and this ones probably lags behind compared to contemporanean fighters. So its not too good BVR and its even less so WVR. I picture it as a stricky point defense fighter. Hit and run tactics would be the best way to use it.

 

I dont expect the iranian version to be even up to this standard, nor would it be a realistic way to defend the vast country. So dont jump on haste conclusions. ;)

True. Tigershark came little to late 'cuz there was YF-17 on the way and the LWF competition between Northrop and General Dynamics. F-20 had only a single engine. What manufacturer was it?

[thesystem]

Northrop? or do you mean the engine?

 

Powerplant: 1 General Electric F404-GE-100 (76 kN)

[VMFA117_Poko]

Engine i had in mind. Yeah. That single engine had 60% more power than two in previous versions of Tiger. Only one TigerShark left from three prototypes.

First they claim its equal to the F/A-18 and now they paint them similar to the Blue angels!! :lol:

[VMFA117_Poko]

How original, isn't it? :lol:

Hm ... doesn't appear particularly modern.

 

But - then again, it should be noted that producing a fighter domestically is nothing to scoff at either.
