Nader Jahanbani
Nader Mirza Jahanbani (Persian: نادر جهانبانی, romanized: Nāder Jahānbānī; 16 April 1928 – 13 March 1979) was a distinguished general, fighter pilot, and deputy commander of the Imperial Iranian Air Force (IIAF) under Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the last Shah of Iran. He is widely regarded as one of the founding fathers of the Iranian Air Force along with General Mohammad Khatami and Lieutenant General Amir Hossein Rabii, for growing and modernizing the IIAF to become a world class air force with advanced equipment and training, including the F-14 Tomcat, which would save Iran's crucial infrastructure during the Iran–Iraq War. He was the founder and leader of the Golden Crown, Iran's first and only precision flying demonstration team, and one of the oldest in the world.
