    Between this and the stealth boat-planes, I don't understand why we aren't already all speaking Persian.

    Funnily enough, this new stealth plane looks like it would function better as a boat than a fighter.

    Our F35 for comparison:

    From that and OP's picture I kinda think they are exactly alike...what am I not seeing?

    One is an airplane, the other is a fiberglass statue.
    'Twas a cutlass swipe or an ounce of lead
    Or a yawing hole in a battered head
    And the scuppers clogged with rotting red
    And there they lay I damn me eyes
    All lookouts clapped on Paradise
    All souls bound just contrarywise, yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!

    The Iranian one is half the size for a start, too small to support any modern powerplant, weapons and sensors.

    Yahoo had a vid of it flying, you could even see the distinct wing tips. Didn't they say it was supposed to be a low flying ghost plane anyways?

    Same thing. Persian is just English for Farsi.

    They should have just left the cockpit off the thing and said it was their new stealth drone!

    THAT I would believe, it looks more like a drone than a manned stealth fighter.

    iran doesnt have the resources to design and build a fighter like that themselves. the design looks to me like a chinese version of a russian style aircraft.
    doesnt look like a model to me though, but doesnt look like a production model either (most likely a one-off sales model), the reverse angle pic of the air force general says it all, that it doesnt scare anyone a bit

    also, its not a stealth aircraft (being black doesnt make it stealthy)
