Bahram Hooshyar (Persian: بهرام هوشیار‎‎) (1938–1991) was a commander of the Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force (IRIAF) and an important strategist in the Iran–Iraq war.

General Hooshyar's key role along with Major General Javad Fakouri in Attack on H3 (Attack on Al-Waleed) is undeniable.

He not only was involved in designing Operation Samen-ol-A'emeh, But also General Hooshyar was innovator of Iran's plan for launching missile in battle.

He for first time established and started Khyber missile site (Foley Islamabad) along with some armored divisions operating Qazvin. Bahram Hooshyar (1938–1991) was one of the most intelligent and bright commanders of Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force (IRIAF) during Iran-Iraq war.[1]

He died in Tehran in 1991 after suffering cancer for a long time. Like many soldiers serving in Iran Iraq War, he was diagnosed with Leukemia. His sculpture at the Museum of the Air Force is on display as one of Iran's symbols of the Iran–Iraq War.
