IranIran unveils new 'domestically-built fighter jet'

TEHRAN: Iran has unveiled a new domestically built fighter jet that military officials claim can evade radar, Iranian media reported on Saturday.

In a ceremony held in Tehran, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said that building the Qaher-313, or Dominant-313, demonstrates Iran’s will to “conquer scientific peaks”.

“Qaher-313 is a fully indigenous aircraft designed and built by our aerospace experts. This is a radar-evading plane that can fly at low altitude, carry weapons, engage enemy aircrafts and land at short airstrips,” Defence Minister Ahmad Vahidi said.
