Everything looks pretty impressive honestly. Though that helicopter is buggin me. Something about it just screams crop converted-duster. Ill become a beliver when I see it fire all its weapon stores. Including that Turret!.
For sure, for sure.
An update from airliners.net
Interesting if Iran have some advanced AA rockets
Empty weight ca 700 kilos? That's less then a Lotus Elise, which is a palstic bathtub with a weed-wacker engine. That Iranian chopper looks like it has to be piloted by a dwarf and armed with firecrakers. Total waste of money that could have been spent on improving healthcare or schools.
it's for domestic audience ( propaganda ) .
Iran has planned to built a 1000 tons indigenious submarine.
Can't find the name of the project.
The only model pics I've seen was similar to Italo-Russian S1000 design.
Someone has more info ?
The Submarine you are talking about is called
Qaaem Class Submarine , Admiral Sayyari said the first Qaaem Class Submarine will enter service end of 2010. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qaaem_Class_Submarine
What many people here don't know ( very unknown fact ) is that Irans Military has still a friendly relation with Western European Armys. Iran invites Western (and also eastern) Generals regulary to its Defence Conferences and they always attend, pictures from the last Defence Conference in Iran.
Guests were Generals and Commanders from Western Nations such as Germany,Poland,Italy,Greece,Ireland,Spain,Portugal and more.. but also Generals from Eastern Nations like Russia,China,Japan,Pakistan,South and North Korea,Turkey,Afghanistan,Arab Nations and ofcourse Latin American Nations(Brazil,venezuela and more..)

Thank you very much for the link and picture.
I guess the admiral was willing to say "will begin sea trials end of 2010".
those C130 that Iran has they use for transport.. im a noob at military but couldn't they add guns on that thing and turn it into a spooky?
Couldn't agree more about that helicopter, it looks more like a poor experiment than an actual frontline project. I mean it looks like it will be used to experiment with the idea rather than to mass produce for the Rev. Guard.
Their equipment looks nice but is very little threat to the region
what type of missiles uses Iran on their F5, F4 and F14? because I never saw these fighters with missiles
F-5: AIM-9
F-4: AIM-9 and AIM-7
F-14: AIM-9, AIM-7, AIM-54 and "AIM-23C"
Or do you mean air-to-ground missiles?
What is the deal of Iranians not wearing ties?
