"Indigenous design and production of various types of mechanized shower missiles, artillery equipped with active and passive fire control, various short and medium-range tactical missile systems and advanced long-range anti-cruise and anti-ballistic missile system 'Bavar-373', are the result of more than 4 decades of effort and self-confidence at defense and air defense systems to get rid of dependence," said Brigadier General Abolfazl Sepehri Rad, the Deputy Coordinator of the Army Air Defense Force in an interview with IRNA.
Air defense advances in the fields of electronic warfare, passive defense and cyber defense with the design and production of advanced equipment and development of cyber defense and electro-cyber infrastructure has reached a stage that air intruders would regret to approach the airspace of the Islamic Republic of Iran, he added.
"We will definitely confront with any aggressor and lawbreaker, in accordance with the rules and the principle of legitimate defense, as we have shown many times, to adhere to this oath and advise the enemies to act wisely against the Islamic Republic of Iran and not to cross the red line," he stressed.
