Unveiled in March 2017 but with a first flight the year before, all photos of the type still seem to be of this airframe, even in early 2021. It was announced in 2020 though that mass production would start within a year. If so, it would mean Iran managed to produce own versions of the French engines and Austrian transmission - a method it is familiar with out of necessity. Searching for identification was not appreciated at the exhibition. This photo is copyright © Erik Sleutelberg, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
