Have you ever seen the nose of an F-5 mounted on the tail of a Tu-154?

Re: Iranian (fake?) next generation fighter
From what I read, they modified that TU-154 with the F-5 fuselage to perform inflight testing on their newly made ejection seats. Wonder who the poor sap is going to be sitting in that seat 

Re: Iranian (fake?) next generation fighter
LOL! Somebody remind the Irianians that they don't have to use real, live pilots during the ejection seat tests.
