Iran missile system will be more developed and powerful than Russian missile system, named S-300, that Russia wanted to give Iranian government.
By quoting a senior commander, Iran’s state television, Press TV telecasted this news online.
Khatama Al - anabiya air defense base commander General Pharajad Ismaily said infrastructural facilities was prepared for the missile system, named Babur -373. The project has already overcome the initial barriers. He also said the missile system will be created by the end of Iran’s five-year plan in 2016.
Pharajad Ismaily said, "at the end of the project, we will be more powerful than the S -300, & we will be more capable to add to the security of the sky.
In 2007, according to the agreement between Iran and Russia, The Russia was committed to supply at least five S-300 missiles to the Iranian official.
But in the end, due to the fourth round of sanctions on Tehran from the UN Security Council, Russia has not provided the missiles and shown an excuse.
From the last few years, Iran has demonstrated the capabilities by improving their military equipment and systems. It has been claimed by the officials of Iran that the country has made these arms and weapons for self-defense only.
