Contributing sentiments towards policy:
57% : The Yak-130 is arguably the most advanced fast jet in service with Iran overall, which will have other impacts when it comes to modernizing the very geriatric IRIAF.55% : Iran may also see value in the Yak-130 in a light attack role.
52% : Although not an absolutely definitive step toward IRIAF Su-35s, the Yak-130 definitely brings Iran closer to operating modern Russian fighter aircraft.
52% : It sure seems like Iran is prepping to receive the type, with reports that Iranian pilots have already received training on the Flanker-E. Even a full-scale mock-up of an Su-35 have been spotted at Iran's new highly fortified airbase that features extensive underground aircraft parking and support areas, named 'Eagle 44.'
50% : The Yak-130's arrival in Iran fits with past reporting on Tehran securing new Russian equipment in exchange for supplying Moscow's war effort in Ukraine.
49% : Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps-linked Tasnim News Agency reported Saturday that the Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force (IRIAF) received the trainers.
49% : We reported on the claimed Su-35 deal when Iranian state media said Moscow and Tehran finalized the agreement in March.
44% : Russia has reportedly delivered Yak-130 "Mitten" trainer jets to Iran in the latest example of Moscow and Tehran's increasing military ties and the associated arms trades that have come with them.
33% : Regardless, the Yak-130 won't be the last weapons transfer from Russia to Iran as Moscow continues to rely on Tehran to supply its war effort in Ukraine.
