Iranian Air Force (IRIAF/IRGC-ASF) | News and Discussions

[kastor ville]

That's what you get for letting retard mullahs run a country. They make a mess, mismanage the economy, let corruption run rampant, killed the air force, planted seeds of treason, and on top of all this, want to smack around young people for hijab and dumbass social restrictions because "gHaRBzaDeGi" . It took them 40 some years until they gave up. Traitors.

And to know that there are people in this forum still supporting this shitstain government.

So sad to see what the nation is becoming. This is a warning to any country, never ever put religion into government. Never again.

It's time for new management.

Yes, I feel your frustration, even if they were true believers, you know the Friday Prayer crowd, but if they were competent I wouldn't be able to criticize them too much, but these people in charge are dumb asses.....retards! We can do so much better, we have to do better.....if we want Iran to survive.

to borrow your phrase:
"It's time for new management."

Babak's sources are so "good' he knows how many 20mm rounds were loaded on which aircraft on what night!

The analyses here are crazy about Iranian fighter jets. Some contributors here are in the deepest sewers. I participate less here because the group I'm in is at a higher level of analysis than here, with quality contributions. You've scared off a couple more here. There's some very good news coming soon, according to someone who is very well-informed and truly interesting.

I was even pleasantly surprised, and you're sick of saying that the IRIAF has completely collapsed. That's completely false, and let's let the news and announcements come. You ridiculed the F-313, so wait for the rest. The Kowsar jet, what I said here a few weeks ago persists; it really seems that the radar chain is really working. The new Kowsars, like the older ones, will operate with active electronically scanned array radars. According to the source, who is very adept at discussing combat aviation, he claims that the development of AESA radars carried out by the IRIAF was made possible by the development of the manned F-313, where efforts are ongoing.

This would probably also have benefited from assistance from China and Russia. I like my group, we're talking about new drones, the new-generation Karrar, the Iranian Pantsir, a quantum radar managed by AI, and new missiles to come. Regarding defense systems, Iran is reportedly placing a lot of emphasis on the Mehran 1, 2, and even 3 systems. We'll see in the future.

Like Iraqi AF post First Persian Gulf war, current IRIAF is becoming or already becoming a fleet of dozen or so handful FMC old Shahi or Soviet jets. A force that exists on paper only because few politically appointed "Islamic" officers are still attending offices starting from Mr. "pro-hejab speeches" General Vahedi himself, worst ever commander of IRIAF post revolution. Thats about it.

I am 100% sure if there is another war in 1-2 years, most of the airforce will be non flying airframes left on tarmac to be targeted by enemy ALBMs, or long ranged PGMS, SOWs.

IRGCAF is the only attack arm left in the IRI's armed forces because Iranian UCAVs tech has stalled (no supersonic unmanned bomber or fighter). Shahed 171/181/191 low RCS platforms never got serious production or armamants to be relied upon for intruding enemy airspace. Karrar never got enlarged to be seriously deployed as an interceptor. Naval attack options are limited because of lack of SLBMs or ship launched BMs. IRIAF's attack fleet is limited to few FMC F-4E/D, SU-24MK while IRGCAF's own attack fleet of upgraded SU-22M3/M4 has been limited to a single squadron with record of crashes.

This puts excessive pressure on IRGCAF to act as the ONLY detterent of IRI with nothing unconventional in their arsenal either. Well done Ayatollahs.

Hello Mr. Iran Eye. The other group you're a member of, is it a forum ? If so would you be happy to share the name of it, as I thoroughly enjoy reading info on this subject.

God bless our army and our militants

I have criticized the reformist and liberal politicians as much as I could,
but when it comes to militants and generals, it is completely unfair to criticize or mock them,
because these people seek martyrdom for the sake of their people and their country, and have placed themselves in front of the enemy to defend their nation

 

[Shafagh]

Should be criticizing everyone responsible, not just liberals.

It's totally fair to criticize them.

A general has an important job to do. He isn't very useful dead. It is the fact that I.R. officials have been valuing martyrdom more than intelligence is a big part of how they got into the mess from the beginning. Yes bravery is good, but bravery for the sake of dying is retarded. Armies need competent generals, not brainless religious zealots willing simply to sacrifice themselves.

The soldiers and officers are a different story. Under Israeli bombardment, they stood their ground and died to ensure Iran was able to retaliate.

I am not much familiar with your ideas

But I respect them because I know they have left their family and joy to defend their country

You can respect what they do, their sacrifice, and criticize their actions at the same time.

Interesting! It seems Russia-Iran relations have been largely one-sided. What happened to the SU-35s?

There has never ever been any Iranian-Russian relationship. Its a lie that Khamenei-cultists try to peddle to make IRI look like some strong strategic partner of a military powerhouse Russia, instead of an isolated despotic regime. People who do not know history of Russia and Iran against each other just manifested that because IRI took a illogical anti US stance since its inception, it must be some Russian supported entity. It never was and never will.

Russia has taken Iranian lands in past by force, Azerbaycan, Armenia, entire south Caucsus, it kept trying to take chunks out of North Western Iran not too long ago and would have broken Iran in little SSRs had it not been for US to intervene. They tried exporting soviet socialist revolution in Iran, supported Anti Government sentiments within Iran to derail a prosperous government. Post Revolution uncanny Russian support for Baathist Arab regime led to million Iranian deaths. They supported western peddled sanctions on Iran, took payments for arms but refused to supply them (happened twice). They took Iranian TOT and established entire giant assembly lines of Iranian drones, literally fighting a war and winning it on basis of Iranian tech but gave nothing back to Iran. They took major share of Caspian Sea because IRI mullahs have no spine, they are very tough against teenage girls of Tehran over Hejab though. Russia did what suited Russia, what did Ayatollahs do is the question we must ask.

SU-35S deal is gone and IRIAF no longer exists as a war capable force. It will emerge as IrAF "Iranian Airforce" once IRI is gone probably with local TOTed assembly lines imported from China or West itself, otherwise its already a replica of Saddams AF post Persian Gulf war. In the next war we will see unflyable jets being taken out by long ranged SOWs on tarmac in bulk.

Hello Mr. Iran Eye. The other group you're a member of, is it a forum ? If so would you be happy to share the name of it, as I thoroughly enjoy reading info on this subject.

It's a Telegram group, and I'm lucky to have found it. They don't want to invite just anyone to report it, and intruders come because of the chaos. I like the atmosphere. People know this forum well, and like me, they're very disappointed with the atmosphere here, the weak analysis, and the propaganda of certain people.

Regarding Shafagh's question, I can't say for sure that there are people from the IRIAF in this group. I don't know if Amir Patriot is in the group because I haven't seen his username, but there are at least two people who really know about fighter jets in general. In any case, the information will end up here one day or another. I found the group on Twitter-X, and I don't even remember the account; I changed my mind before I came across the group.

The group manager doesn't want me to share it here, and I respect that. But it's possible that two people from the group will join this forum. I'd like to, because they're good, but their choices aren't mine to decide. It seems there's a production line for new AESA radars for fighter jets like the Kowsar. Watch for future announcements from the IRIAF.

Yesterday, there was talk of a modern version of the Mig-29 that may have arrived in Iran from Russia. Is it true? A false rumor, we'll see.

 

[Mr Iran Eye]

Who has this photo? Piet?

A copy of the new AESA radar for the Kowsar was apparently publicly displayed during a demonstration; it was red. Does Piet have this in his photos?
