The report says the domestically made craft can be used for surveillance and can carry guns and transmit data. Its production is part of Iran’s effort to boost its arsenal and military capabilities despite international sanctions over the country’s controversial nuclear program.
Iran announced last year it had successfully tested the plane, dubbed the Bavar-2, or Confidence-2. A flying boat is a seaplane with a hull that allows it to land and travel on water.
State TV broadcast footage Tuesday of the small craft in operation in the air and sea.
Iran’s military achievements cannot be independently verified.
Looks like a nice chol hamoed activity.
To number one, the late John Denver thought so too.
Was he in a sea plane if so let the entire iranian AF fly them
I think I saw some DIY instructions for this online. Looks more like arts’n crafts time.
what else can these morons do.i bet they can chew gum and walk down the street at the same time…………maybe.
If the ayatollah of dimwitollah really thinks those slow moving water planes won’t eventually end up as driftwood, then he needs to slow down on his poppyseed intake.
Toys-r-Us has a great sale on these planes. The kids love it for bath time.
These are pusher props. They’re probably pretty noisy.
