ESzczesniak Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Or is there more to this subject? https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/irans-new-fighter-jet-is-a-copy-of-a-us-plane/ar-BBMiiur?li=BBnb7Kz The article references some prototype, but based on the only picture...yes, those are Iranian F-14A’s. They’re not only copies, but made by the USA, and sold to Iran 30ish years ago. Is is there some prototype they’re not showing a picture of, or is the media really this bad at they’re research now?

BN7149 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 It is actually a copy of an F-5, or at least very closely resembles an F-5. Cutting edge stuff, for sure. 🙄 -Ryan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ReccePhreak Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 You really expect the Fake "News" to get anything correct about anything military-related? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dnl42 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I expect you're talking about the F-14's in the inset photo at the top of the Newsweek page? Yeah. That's research coming up with "some picture of Iranian jets". That's as good as it gets when you read Newsweek. The Aviationist has a more authoritative piece...

As opposed to fair and balanced State Television? LMAO!! They all pretty much don't bother to sweat the details when it comes to stuff like this.

afspret Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Remember when they came up with this "new" fighter, based on the F-5! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
