The KH2002 Khaybar is an Iranian designed assault rifle derived from the DIO S 5.56 assault rifle and further developed by Iran’s Defense Industries Organization (DIO). It was designed in 2001 with samples produced in 2003 with the eventual production of the KH2002 commencing in 2004. The rifle is built on what seems to be a bullpup conversion of the DIO S-5.56 assault rifle an Iranian version of the Chinese Norinco CQ rifle which is itself a clone of the M16-A1.
