Fakour-90, is this thing real?

it seems to be an Iranian copy of the phoenix missile, but is it actually functional? Iran has a history of displaying random stuff that don’t work

According to a speaker at the European EW conference earlier this year, the engineering details suggest that it may be based on Phoenix, rather than being a direct copy.

However, we face the problem that the examples seen in Iranian parades may be mockups or training rounds, so may not reflect the construction details of a real-world missile.

Probably wouldn’t be too difficult to copy a 1970s missile today.
