Shahram Rostami (Template:Lang-fa) was an Iranian fighter pilot in the Iran-Iraq War. With six definite aerial victories, against three MiGs and three Mirage F1s, he qualifies as a flying ace and holds the record for the second highest score of any F-14 Tomcat pilot behind fellow serviceman Jalil Zandi.
