Indeed, and for that reason Iran is definitely retarded.
Sound logic, lol

So much for an RIP. :'(

and since i was to lazy to read at the time of my original response.
That crash was the result of the pilot not the result of malfunctioning equipment.

Getting spare parts is the first step in improving maintenance. After that can we start addressing the bureaucratic issues.

So Iran isn't investing it's oil money into fostering a competent aerospace industry within it's own boarders, and thus cannot provide maintenance/spare parts. What's your point? That it's the West's/Russia's fault? Fuck off. It's Iran's own fault for not setting up shop on home turf.
Iran is not a little child trying suck American tits for life. It's a big boy and can take care of itself. If it chooses not to then fuck 'em. Iran created Iran's problems.

That airplane crash was a result of pilot error during a rehearsal for the airshow, not a problem with maintenance.
The problem with military jet parts is that they've embargo going on that prohibits an extensive sale of military equipments to Iran from any country, even if they had the money to buy the parts and were willing to spend it. Iran will buy spare parts for 40 Tomcats if they had the chance to, I assure you. Right now they have to reverse-engineer the parts because the U.S. - the sole holder of Tomcat parts - absolutely refuses to have a military deal with Iran.

So maybe Iran shouldn't piss off countries that have the parts they need?
If they want to go their own way and build nukes in secret then they should've taken into account that no one would treat with them.
