Iran's "stealth" fighter is completely fake...

Probably old news here, but if you recall Iran's announcement that they had a new stealth fighter that could "evade radar" designed for deterrence (lolk), it turns out they were totally bullshitting us...again. Here are the relevant pictures: [url=http://cdn.theatlanticwire.com/img/upload/2013/02/04/932874_orig.jpg]World's smallest and simplest cockpit![/url] And in another, you can see that the pilot doesn't even fit in the cockpit: [url=http://cdn.theatlanticwire.com/img/upload/2013/02/04/130204_Q-313clownfighter_.jpg]Dem knees[/url] Also, notice the air intakes...intakes on the top of a jet make flight almost impossible. And, no shit, they put a "remove before flight" tag (like ones that are in battery cases of cheap electronics so their batteries don't get used up on the shelf) on their engine nozzle: [url=http://cdn.theatlanticwire.com/img/upload/2013/02/04/Q3131_.jpg]And it's in English, too![/url] So, in conclusion, they made a plastic model that appears to be of 1:2 scale and isn't even aerodynamically sound, just to show off technology that has been obsolete for 40 years. It's being nicknamed the "Barbie Jet". lolIran [url=http://www.theatlanticwire.com/global/2013/02/iran-new-stealth-fighter-jet-fake/61781/]Full article.[/url]

  • Called it when I saw the first picture. Looked like Paper Mache to me. Who would have guessed i'd be right? Iran is lulzy. Why are we afraid of their power again?
