Iranian Armed Forces near one of the country’s nuclear installations successfully tested new upgraded version of US Hawk missile. Iran’s Khatamol-Anbiya industrial complex had successfully redesigned the old missile obtained before the revolution in 1979 and yesterday tested it at location near Arak heavy water production site. The new missile hit its designated target with high accuracy.
According to the top commander of the air base Colonel Abolfazl Farmahini, Iranian experts optimized the old Hawk system aimed at boosting preparedness. ‘The test was aimed at reviewing the efficiency of these air defense systems, including missiles and radars, and enhancing the skills and knowledge of the personnel in technical and operational units,’ Farmahini told reportes.
After Russia - under Western pressures - backtracked on its official contract to sell S-300 missiles, Tehran began its own program of manufacturing mid and long-range surface to air missiles. The oil-rich Middle Eastern nation is today one the world’s most prolific manufacturers of missiles.
The country has plans to send its second satellite into orbit next month using domestically built long-range transporter. Tehran sent its first locally designed Omid satellite into orbit about two years ago.
