The only missiles the F-14 can carry are already present on it ingame (minus the fabled Fattir/Fatir/Fatter missile)
The PL series was never adapted to it afaik.
So Iranian Air start like Israeli Tech tree from Rank 4
To be honestly
There a lot Copy paste vehicle, but atleast few Jet there was Unique.
I remember if Iranian could Modified & reverse engineering some US aircraft that look so unique
So far as i know they successful made F-5 their own made
I know this was back in August but I was wondering if you have linked your sources for it being able to carry 6? If so, I’ll submit a bug report if one hasn’t been created already.
Are there any sources about the armament composition of the modernized Su-22? I’ve seen exhibitions, but I’m interested in the full list and sources on it

if we have Israel why not have Iran, +1

Given the mess that Iran is politically (historical close relations with the UK, USA and Israel and more recent relationships with Russia, China etc) its hardware should be split across nations with skins available for said nations.
Iran has used some very interesting interwar aircraft that are currently not in game such as the Hawker Hind (Mercury Engine) and Audax. You could even throw in the Tiger Moth, UK’s PO.2!!!

As far as i know both are basic unarmed trainers so they unfortunately cannot be added
The Shafaq and the Borhan are both mockups with the former confirmed to have at least a functioning prototype planned but currently is stuck in development hell, with Iran’s current air doctrine preferring UAV’s not helping matters. Despite that we do have more than enough data to model at the Shafaq as well as their planned armaments for both

Do we have any info on whether the engines on the reverse engineered F-5s were upgrade? An F-5 with more thrust would be nice :D
Still waiting for my blue Saeqeh-2. Virtually every other version of the F-5 is in game bar the very best and most interesting looking one!

“Before 1979, Iran hosted secret joint operations with allies like the US and UKtesting advanced weapons on Iranian soil. One RAF Avro Vulcan crash exposed the covert missions. After the revolution, hidden bases used to spy on the Soviets were uncovered.
Rumors suggest B-1 Lancer bombers may have flown to Iran during development, though no purchase interest was confirmed (yet!).
As we’ve revealed in the past, Iran planned to acquire hundreds of F-16s and F-15s in the '80s, alongside a second batch of Tomcats. Could the B-1 have been on the lIAF wishlist too?
Some B-1A prototypes (like serial 76-0174) were desert-camouflaged for arid testing—before the program was canceled in 1977.”

Do you have any sources for further reading?
Because it seem rather interesting
Iranian Yak-130’s are combat capable. Including the ability to carry AAM’s such as in the image below showing an Iranian Yak-130 with an R-73E. The Iranian Yak-130’s can carry the typical Air to Ground Ordinances as the regular 130
Spoiler
Also considering adding the P-3F to the TT since it is a unique variant of the Orion made for Iranian specifications

Just wanted to share a few thoughts on potential Iranian tech tree Subtrees, in case they’re helpful. (≧▽≦)ゞ

Why Do We Need Iran and Its Subtrees?
War Thunder is a realism-oriented game that is fundamentally structured around distinct national factions.
However, at the current stage of the game, there is a serious lack of factions capable of balancing the Western bloc. At present, Russia and China are essentially the only nations that can be considered non-Western major powers. As a result, battles have become highly homogenized, frequently devolving into internal Western-versus-Western conflicts, which significantly reduces gameplay variety and long-term interest.
As the game’s timeline continues to advance, moving steadily toward modern warfare and with Infantry gameplay expected to be introduced in the future, Iran and its associated subtrees clearly represent one of the most suitable options:
-
Iran belongs to the anti-Western camp.
-
Iran is a principal adversary of Israel.
-
War Thunder currently lacks sufficient representation of vehicles from the Middle East. The inclusion of Iranian subtrees would allow for the integration of a substantial portion of Middle Eastern vehicles. In particular, due to decades of prolonged conflict, many armed groups in the region operate highly distinctive, improvised wartime-modified vehicles (DIY or “technicals”). These vehicles do not fit well into any existing tech tree in War Thunder, and the Iranian tech tree would provide the most appropriate home for them.
⠀⠀
As Israel’s primary regional competitor, Iran is also a significant military-industrial power. Some dedicated players have already outlined comprehensive blueprints for a potential Iranian tech tree suitable for inclusion in War Thunder. Therefore, today I would like to propose several countries and factions that could reasonably be introduced as subtrees under the Iranian tech tree:
-
Syria – Assad Regime 🇸🇾
-
Lebanon – *Lebanese armed group 🇱🇧
-
Yemen – *Yemeni armed group 🇾🇪
-
Palestine – *Palestinian armed group 🇵🇸
-
Iraq – Popular Mobilization Forces 🇮🇶
-
Geopolitical Relations – Afghanistan 🇦🇫
-
Geopolitical Relations – Qatar 🇶🇦
-
Geopolitical Relations – *removed 🏴☠️
-
Geopolitical Relations – *removed 🏴☠️
⠀⠀
(Although the *removed 🏴☠️ is hostile toward Iran, this does not necessarily prevent it from being included as part of the Iranian tech tree—much like the relationship between Taiwan and China within the game. Moreover, it is not impossible that the Islamic Republic of Iran could, in the future, fragment into multiple localized factional entities, creating opportunities for other forces, such as the *removed 🏴☠️, to expand their influence.)
⠀⠀
-
Geopolitical Relations – Somalia – *removed 🇸🇴
-
Geopolitical Relations – Somali Pirates 🏴☠️
-
Overseas Cooperation – Sudan 🇸🇩
-
Overseas Cooperation – Tajikistan 🇹🇯
-
Overseas Cooperation – Libya – Gaddafi Regime 🇱🇾
-
Overseas Cooperation – Pakistan 🇵🇰
-
Overseas Cooperation – Venezuela 🇻🇪
-
Overseas Cooperation – Cuba 🇨🇺
-
Overseas Cooperation – North Korea 🇰🇵
⠀⠀
(Just as Canadian vehicles can appear in both the U.S. and British tech trees, Pakistan and North Korea could simultaneously exist within both the Chinese and Iranian tech trees; similarly, Cuba and Venezuela could be shared between the Soviet and Iranian tech trees.)
