Spare parts for the aircraft were also not available, while the Mirage technology level did not allow you to drop it. Therefore, with the decision of Mansour Sattari, Commander of the Air Force of the Army of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Iranian specialists started operating the aircraft without referring to the country of manufacture. With the launch and overhaul of these aircraft, a Mirage F-1 aircraft was ready to fly at the Hamedan base in the summer of 1993.
