Iran's got a stealth fighter

Unveiled Friday, Iran has produced what it's calling a stealth fighter. The aviation community seems to be of the opinion that it's either a fake, a fiberglass mock-up, or a disaster waiting to happen. There's certainly a lot of engineering issues with it, and not much room for the pilot.
Either way, it seems to indicate they're trying to produce one, which might be a little worrisome.

It's pretty awesome looking, even if it appears to be manufactured by Hasbro.

 

It can't have much of a payload.

 

If it's even real.

 

It looks a lot like our stealth fighters. I'd be interested to hear Three_bags_full's take on this.

 

I'd like to hear what he says, too.

 

Even Kim Jong-un looks at that thing and just laughs and laughs and laughs.

 

Wings are way too small to do anything.

 

My nephew built one of these out of Legos.

 

It looks like the pilot sits backwards.

 

Here's a takedown:
