Speaking of fifth-generation fighters, the American F-35 or the Russian Su-57 immediately comes to mind. However, others, including Iran, wish to possess the most powerful air weapon of our time.
The basis of the air force of the country for a long time were and still are the old (F-4) Phantom II, (F-5) Northrop, (F-14) Tomcat, as well as the Soviet MiG-29 and Su-24. The outdated aircraft fleet and the extension of the arms embargo imposed by the UN prompted the country to create its stealth aircraft. It is worth noting that the Middle Eastern country has been working on domestic machines since 1986 and has already presented to the world such models as Azarakhsh, Saeqeh, and Kowsar.
