Probably old news here, but if you recall Iran's announcement that they had a new stealth fighter that could "evade radar" designed for deterrence (lolk), it turns out they were totally bullshitting us...again. Here are the relevant pictures:

And in another, you can see that the pilot doesn't even fit in the cockpit:

Also, notice the air intakes...intakes on the top of a jet make flight almost impossible.
And, no shit, they put a "remove before flight" tag (like ones that are in battery cases of cheap electronics so their batteries don't get used up on the shelf) on their engine nozzle:

So, in conclusion, they made a plastic model that appears to be of 1:2 scale and isn't even aerodynamically sound, just to show off technology that has been obsolete for 40 years. It's being nicknamed the "Barbie Jet".
