I'm not entirely sure if this is meant for real or more some kind of study model? Take a look at the cockpit. If we would see this in the homebuild cockpit section of this forum, we might say it's cool. But for a real aircraft? And why are all the markings in english ("Danger", "remove before flight etc."). Is this common in other non-western countries? Well, at least the pilot looks bad-ass... Jens link to press.tv

Hmmm, I think they have been watching Stealth with Jamie Foxx too much....
Looks like a mock-up to me.

Cockpit looks a bit shallow to me, knees blocking the view of the instruments I agree, mock up.

I heard rumors, that (as a first step) the Iranian Air Force will develop this for the DCS World.

The canopy is so poor you can barely see through it, the poor guy that flies this is doomed. The CAD drawings are a tell looks like a sim model.

I think they're experimenting with a new secret of aerodynamics which involves smearing the aircraft with Vaseline... If the canopy is any indication.

It could be a drone made to look like a manned aircraft just to throw us all off.
