    Iran unveils NEW jet fighter!

    This breaking news! Nobody reporting on this story said anything about how much Iran’s NEW fighter resembles our F-5. LOL

    This is not new. This was captured nearly a decade ago. As you can see, the F-16 was barely able to keep up with it. The current version reportedly come with increased payload, twin engines and stealth technology.

        Iran has unveiled a twin-seater fighter jet that it says is entirely DESIGNED (LOLLOL) and manufactured in the country.

          Most likely a hold over from that "Iran/Contra" deal. The drugs were wrapped in the "blueprints".

                They named it Kawsar, which can be roughly translated to mean either “Freedom Fighter Rippoff” or “Not A Northrop”.
                No no....Look closely WBC, this is entirely their own design, nothing else like it, ever.

                  It is a T-38 Talon. They got some plans somewhere. Or their just lying about it.

                    Apparently the actual new jet was unable to make the flypast due to something to do with sanctions, so they flew one of their old F-5s instead and pretended it was the new plane!
