This is likely a composite airframe, with indications it consists of c/n Z1018, former F-5F 3-7171 FMS serial 75-0698, and c/n Z1027, former F-5F 75-0707 that also went to Iran under FMS. It is equipped with Russian ejection seats and Chinese navigation equipment. Saeqeh means Thunder in Farsi, and this is the only dual seat version known to exist.

So far, the twin fin conversion from F-5 to Saeqeh seems to be no more than a proof of concept. The ۲ on the tail confirms this aircraft was based at 2nd Tactical Air Base Tabriz, where 23 TFS is the IRIAF's sole Saeqeh squadron.

This pair, with 4-9422 (c/n 17202) on the right, along with the others seen across the runway from Terminal 1, likely fell under the local Base Flight/SAR detachment.

Six Bell 214Bs were noted on the platform, of which four could be identified. The type has been reported to be operated by the Assault Sqn as well as the Base Flights/SAR detachments. The information that one such latter unit is stationed at Mehrabad with seven Bell 214s makes it likely that is the operator of these Bells.

There were eleven C-130s on the military ramps of Mehrabad that could be seen from Terminal 1. Presumably operated by the resident 11 TAS, they wore no visible unit markings. C-130Hs 5-8538 and 5-8541 are c/n's 4466 and 4471 respectively.

Delivered as 5-132, then became the second 5-126 and registered as shown on 1 September 1976. Another Iranian C-130 with this serial, assumed to be fake, crashed near Shiraz 18 days later. The Falcon 50 is EP-TFA, c/n 101, that came from Iraqi Airways and was 5-9012 with the IRIAF. At the photo date it was operated on government duties by Saha Air.
