Iran Claims to Have a New Fighter Plane; The Saegheh

The international terrorist sponsoring state of Iran claims to have a new fighter plane and they call it; The Saegheh. The pictures show this aircraft to be a two-seater fighter plane although the Iranian News Agency called IRNA has put out a lot of bogus information in the past and it is hard to sift through what is real and what is misinformation.

We know Arab leaders that are fundamentalists to exaggerate their abilities in wartime. Saddam Hussein is a perfect example of how Arab leaders misrepresent their technologies in warfare. It is a giant bluffing game, unfortunately they are saying that this fighter plane; The Saegheh, which means thunder or lightning has stealth capabilities, as well as the maneuverability of an F-18 fighter jet. Obviously that is a bunch of malarkey. But it does not matter because the United States Air Force and Navy have superior air-to-air missiles and lots of them.

Further, the IRNA reports that this is a fist generation stealth fighter plane. The only problem with that is what happened to numbers 1, 2, 3, and fourth generation stealth fighters? Someone skipped a couple of steps there. Just the other week the Iranians also claimed to have stealth flying boats and three months ago they claim to have nearly supersonic underwater torpedoes.

My thoughts are that anyone trying this hard to pull a fast one over on the rest of the world\'s military intelligence communities; is that Iran can be beat by the United States of America and less than 17 hours and that includes their one million man army, all their military hardware, the nuclear underground laboratories and complete control of 88 of their top cities. As a matter of fact I am positive that can be done. The nation state sponsoring state of Iran needs to come clean and stop producing nuclear weapons PERIOD.
