{{Iranian Air Force}}This is a list of aircraft types operated by the Iranian Air Force, not including those operated by the air arm of the Aerospace Force of the Army of the Guardians of the Islamic Revolution prior to the foundation of the Air Force as a separate service in August 1955. In 2007, Iraq asked Iran to return some of the scores of Iraqi fighter plans that flew there ahead of the Persian Gulf War in 1991.[1] And as of 2014, Iran was receptive to the demands and was working on refurbishing an unspecified number of jets.[2][3] In late 2014, Iran gave some of the impounded former Iraqi military aircraft back to Iraq.[4] Combat types Air superiority fighters | Aircraft | Origin | Type | Versions | Number | Years | Notes | | Grumman F-14 Tomcat}} | US | Interceptor | F-14A | 40 to 44 | 1974– | 80 examples ordered, 79 were originally delivered; the only plane to use the Phoenix missile. 33 to 44 noted as operational.[5] Iran currently has about 44 F-14 with two of them having been upgraded to F-14AM[6] around 24 Fully Mission Capable and the other 20 Partially Mission Capable | | Mikoyan MiG-29 Fulcrum}} | Russia | Multirole-fighter

Iran also took 5 ex-Iraqi MiG-29 aircraft flown over in 1991, including one MiG-29UB. Only one dual seater was taken into service with 3 single seaters cannibalized for spare parts. The current number of MiG-29 in active service is unknown although most sources point to 25. According to Russian media up to 30 (24 MiG-29 9.12A and 6 MiG-29UB 9.51) of all MiG-29s have been overhauled and can now be armed with Nasr-1 anti-ship missile.[7][8][5][9][8] |
