Hi Ato,
To be fair to ashebourton, at the moment, there isn't a definitive place for ... whatever this is (while I doubt it's a real, truly functional plane, where do you put it in terms of level of confidence? AU? Never-were?)
edit:
That said, there has been a genuine mock-up constructed ... kinda complicates the "where does it go" bit some, doesn't it? If this is a faithful representation of the plane that Iran have presented, "fantasy" seems a little inaccurate, I think. Is your issue with ashebourton's drawing or with the F-313 itself?
Regards,
Adam

I may not be a fan of the Iranian regime, there is a full scale mock up of this and according to aerodynamic testing, this should theoretically produce lift.
I posted this by itself as it is not AU, and just wanted to draw one since no one has done this yet.

Fair enough - while it may not be a fantastic (or even feasible) combat aircraft and may not even be properly stealthy, it does clearly exist, after all.

the plane is real (if you call some badly put together ply wood, fiberglass, filler and some random collection of instruments some that from you tube video's i've seen of this thing would be more at home in a family car!!!!) and some real dodgy photo shopping of the thing airborne....... But that aside it or a model of it is real.
but despite what aberdamagina what ever his name is rants about this so called 5th generation Iranian fighter, I don't think the west or indeed his local foe have much to worry about......
I couldn't find any specs that showed the cockpit, so that is why it is not FD scale. Sorry about that guys. All the pics I found only had the canopy and that's was it.

Also, just wanted to say thanks to those who appreciate my drawings. Right now I only have this and the V-22 rendering, but I look forward to drawing more and learning on how to draw utilizing the FD scale.
