I have to admit I'm quite impressed of Iran's ability at developing weapons systems. Much more advanced than other countries in the Middle East.

The Zolfaghar 3 has a 1000PS engine, laser guided, night vision capable ATGM System, ballistic computer systems, 2A46M 125mm cannon which has a penetration of more than 600mm.
Just the plating isnt state-of-the-art yet. But its planned in a Iran-Brasilian-cooperation to give it a Chobman plating.

Notice the more common turret to the rear retreat position common with Iranian armor.

Don't the Iranians have F14s? And I blieve they modified the phoenix missile?
