Wearing no exterior marks but a plate on the instrument panel gave the registration. Reported to have been secretely procured by the Iranian Aviation Industries Organization (IAIO), aiming at licensed production. Was crashed in July 2012 but repared and taken over by the Navy of the Revolutionary Guard. Not taken into service but renewed on display here, seemingly aiming at the civil market.
