"The defense ministry's new plans include enhancement of the power of different
types of ballistic and cruise missiles, manufacturing a new generation of
fighter jets and heavy and long-range surface and subsurface vessels with
various weapons systems and capabilities," Amir Mohammad Ahadi said, addressing
the foreign military attaches in Tehran on Saturday.
He added that Iran enjoys the necessary infrastructures to further develop its
defense industries.
Last month, a new generation of home-made pin-pointing missiles, named 'Fateh
Mobin' and equipped with an advanced and smart explorer, was unveiled in Iran.
The radar-evading, tactical and pin-pointing missile which was unveiled in a
ceremony participated by Defense Minister Brigadier General Amir Hatami enjoys
high agility and can operate against sea and land-based targets in all types of
environment, even in electronic warfare conditions.
The missile is also capable of penetrating anti-missile defense shields.
Elsewhere, Commander of the Iranian Army Ground Force Brigadier General Kiomars
Heidari also unveiled several achievements developed by the Army Ground Force,
including a quadcopter with a range of 100km and flight durability of 4 hours
which is capable of carrying a load.
Also, a command-and-control system was unveiled by General Heidari which is
capable of transmitting voice, image and data in encoded data.
