Note the serial numbers...or the lack thereof.

There are an increasing number of helmet decorations being spotted among IRIAF pilots, just a week or so ago I spotted characters from Tim Burton's "Nightmare Before Christmas" pasted onto the helmet of an F-4 pilot.

Yes they've covered the serial numbers. Not the first time either. Smart move to confuse people.

It's the PL-7 which are used on the F-7s. You can tell them apart from the AIM-9 by their forward ailerons; the AIM-9P has a single surface while the PL-7 has two separate surfaces.

You have the very right to hate it. It is garbage. Iran was going to equip other jets with these missiles. But pilots rejected. Someone quoted an F-5 pilot saying that he'd rather use his plane's cannon than PL-7.

Pretty standard F-5 cockpit; it doesn't even have the upgraded APQ-153 radar unit that we've seen displayed (limited number of modes, no data-entry keypad)

It shows Saeqeh is just a prototype based on old F-5's (by adding tail to old air-frames)
To me, the cockpit is cockpit of an old F-5 not a newly built fighter (although a friend had told to me that air frame of Saeqeh is newly built by Iran but its systems arent totally new)
I think Azarakhsh (I mean that one seat fighter not two seats green color fighters) was a better project, It clearly uses a new bigger radar than F-5 and uses one gun instead ot two gun (to increase needed space for radar):

I guess these are used by Azarakhsh or overhauled F-5's:
