your little toy would be destroyed in no time.
you cannot compete with any of the major powers, including the
united states, the united kingdom, france or tiny israel.

your delusions of grandeur will cost you a lot.

They spend it on junk.
4. Just another F-5 with minor changes

This is still a 60 year old fighter that was 2nd rate when it was built from a US trainer. It cannot carry any advanced systems, and is only dangerous to the crew that flies it
5. Terrifying

Yes it is! It is almost as terrible looking as one of them there balloons wafting out of Gaza. Seriously, how long would something like that last in the air up against the Israeli air force? Just about as long as a Russian fighter jet, which would be zero. Please, let's remain seated while we give a standing ovation to Khomeini the Amazing! :-)

looks like old US fighter. probably is an updated copy. no match for modern fighters or electronics or skilled pilots. will be shot down quickly.
great show for local consumption to cheer the ignorant masses. doubt it will be made in numbers or put up against Israel. will be used effectively against helpless civilians and hospitals and schools. and give an occasional Mullah a thrill ride.
7. wonderfull technology of the sixties...

it's cheap because there is no button to go down : they let it to Israel...
