The Unrivaled Air Defense Power of Iran: A Closer Look
Iran’s Commander of the Army’s Air Defense Force, Brigadier General Alireza Sabahi-Fard, declared Iran as the undisputed powerhouse of air defense not only in the region but also on a global scale. He emphasized that Iran’s self-sufficiency in manufacturing equipment by local experts has made it independent of any foreign influence.
Highlighting the impact of the 1980s war with Iraq and the directive by Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei to boost defense capabilities, General Sabahi-Fard asserted that Iran’s Air Defense Force is currently at its peak readiness to defend the nation.
Advising enemies against underestimating Iran’s military prowess, he warned that any confrontation would result in victory for the Iranian forces. Recent advancements in indigenous equipment by Iranian engineers have bolstered self-sufficiency in the defense sector.
Leader Khamenei has stressed the importance of maintaining and enhancing defense capabilities, reiterating that negotiations on Iran’s defense capabilities are non-negotiable. Iran stands firm in its commitment to strengthening its defense capabilities solely for defensive purposes.
