The avionics seem to be what you would get in a Cessna or other small plane. The airspeed indicator marks the never exceed speed at 260kts.
Based on the interior picture it also looks like the fuselage is made out of molded chopped strand mat fiberglass, the same type of material you'd find in the hull of a boat rather than an aircraft.
- redthrowaway 14y agoThis just reminds me of the photoshopped missile debacle. Who is Iran trying to fool with these things? They have to know that any competent military will see right through it. Are they trying to convince their own people that the military is all-powerful?
- ExpiredLink 14y agoThe 'danger' sign in English. LoL!
- hencq 14y agoMost likely to impress its own people I think. It's not like Iran's government is very popular with its own people nowadays. They seem to derive their legitimacy from standing up to the West (and particularly the US).
- slurgfest 14y agoThis isn't just about today's politics, it is also about a long-standing sense of national inferiority and a strong desire to prove that Iran is as good as other big countries
- pooriaazimi 14y ago> Are they trying to convince their own people that the military is all-powerful? Yes.
- jstalin 14y agoLOL... why would it say "DANGER" in English?
- greedo 14y agoEnglish is the de facto language in the aviation world.
