Iran’s defense minister says the country’s air defense has now been equipped with the Russian S-300 missile defense system, Iranian Defense Minister General Hossein Dehghan said.
"The Khatam al-Anbia Air Defense Base has received the strategic S-300 air defense missile system," he said, adding that Iran has developed its domestically-built Bavar-373 air defense system and will launch its mass production line this year.
Back in April, Iran displayed part of the Russian-made S-300 air defense missile system in a military parade in Tehran, held to mark the National Army Day, Tasnim reports.
