I would imagine that the lack of orders pouring into Northrop Grumman

I think that's the reason why Iran wanted to sell a squadron of her

But on the other hand Iran does spend much effort on keeping her
aircraft airworthy and produce either new missiles or licensed versions
or reverse-engineered ones.
