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...

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 screwy

Summing up: the shape is interesting with some innovative features but the Q-313 displayed on Feb. 1, 2013, seems to be nothing more than a large mock up model (not properly sized to accommodate a real pilot….).

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

I was expecting this but replaced with a suicide bomber on a giant slingshot.

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.
