It is moment such as this when it truly shows how misconceived is Iran's leadership idea NOT to develop nuclear weapons already. Nuclear weapons would guarantee Iran's safety by assuring MAD against either Israel or the US. Do you not see the belicose rhetoric and the threats coming from them...

Hi Gomig-21, That's a D model, can be recognized by the fin root fairing end. Also if i'm not mistaken EAF A/B models do not carry AIM-7.

Very good summary, finally i can figure out the RQ-170 derived family. While looking on the www i came across this, for what's it worth https://iranprimer.usip.org/blog/2023/mar/02/roster-iran%E2%80%99s-drones

Interestingly, Patarames thinks this is a SAM system. The missile looks very similar to one of the SRBMs Iran has so i dismissed it when i saw it in the Yemen parade video yesterday between two other SAMs. What is it called?

Is there not a peep from IRIAF today? Not even the Yaks, nevermind anything else?

Wonder what happened with yemeni MiG-29s. They were modern SMT variants. Pity there wasn't a way to evacuate them to Iran back in 2015.

A longish DPRK video of KJU's visit to the Far East facilities such as KnAAPO.

Not that one, that seems to look like one of the iranian SRBMs (forget the name now),though it's a bit strange to show in between two SAMs. Freeze right at 13.52, the missiles on the left. They are on a two axle lorry, seemingly different from the Taer-2 shown earlier at 13.33 on trailers.

Look at 13.53 in the video, after the Kub, isn't that a different SAM, maybe a Sayyad-2? This in addition to the Taer-2.

Image showing that as of last week the Su-35s stored at KnAAPO still retained their egyptian numbers

Longer video here:

I'm posting this here because there is a lot of iranian gear shown. Holy cow the stuff flip-flop have(not mocking them, back in the day that's what some of us were calling those badasses in an admiring way), no wonder they won. All kinds of drones, modern SAMs, cruise missile, SRBMs etc. How the...

Taer-4?

Are you refering to the Zoobin/Navvab SAM system Piet?

I don't want to create traffic for pro-western comentators/propagandists, but now Sutton claims the 2019 sub and Kim Gun Ok are two different subs. What to make of it? http://www.hisutton.com/North-Korea-Submarines-Compared.html
