Islamic Republic of Iran Armed Forces - Official thread

[Destructlord]

That is something that is very easy to say as long as one hasn’t got to stand for it. I am not a big specialist on Iranian military hardware but I do not think your statement is true. Maybe they meant that it was all painted in Iran.

However I am always ready to learn.

Im not even sure if you are living in iran because if you were, you would have been died by now! Iran dont tolerate spies. seen many dead bodies lately!

However, if we dont have any weapon technology, if we live in 1944 why wont you live us alone? what is that the west afraid of? nuclear potatos?! iranian scientists and schoolar are doing their best despite the sanctions and low-budget but bucnh of westerners insult their efforts with bunch of nonsense and claiming all of our weapons in our aresenals are copy, old, rotten!!

My final word, if you're in hurry to see the weapons are real or not be prepared to taste them.

The interesting thing is North Korea failed to test its Satellite carrier but we succeed, but still some brainwashed retard claim our missiles are the old North Koreas!

ُGGK search"Shahab-3", "Sajil", "Ghadr-1" and ect... in Janes.com its almost a reliable source if you want to compare the missiles with North Korean ones, Also read Uzi Rubins comments!

[quote=Destructlord;3879131]To the guy who said shahab-3 is a copy of north korea missile! lol at you! shahab-3 is far more advanced and by the way f-5 hadnt two vertical thingies! quote]

The Iranian Shahab-3 is based on the No-dong technology.
North-korea is known to export ICBM tech to Iran.
But North-korea has way better missiles.
Lot of Shahabs on parades where dummys.
US inteligence says that all tests failed..
Its like a upgrated scud-B...on paper.

For the F-5 it will naver stand a chance against western counterparts.
Look at desert storm..
First war the Iraqis shot down one F-18 by an Mig-25 Foxbat.
The second war they did not even try to take of..

Iran Announces Self-Sufficiency in Missile Industry



TEHRAN (FNA)- Iranian Defense Minister Brigadier General Mostafa Mohammad Najjar Tuesday reiterated Iran's advancement in defense industries, saying that the country has reached self-sufficiency in manufacturing various types of rockets and missiles.

"Iran has been able to reach self-sufficiency in producing different kinds of surface-to-surface and surface-to-air missiles with various ranges," Najjar told reporters.

"Iran is increasing its defense capabilities and reaching self-sufficiency in (manufacturing) different kinds of military equipments.

"Promotion of Iran's defensive power will lead to stability in the region," he added.

Najjar reiterated that all military equipment needed by Iran are produced inside the country, saying that the Islamic Republic does not feel any need to foreign suppliers anymore.

He also said that Iran's defense industries now mass-produce different types of weapons, tanks, artillery and armored vehicles, and added that Iranian military experts are even producing equipments which are unrivaled and unique in type.

Iran Produces Smart Anti-Aircraft Gun




Smart 100mm Anti-Aircraft Gun

























TEHRAN (FNA)- Iran succeeded in manufacturing a smart 100mm anti-aircraft gun as part of a campaign to boost the country's defense capabilities.

"The Defense Industries Organization has completed the wholly domestic task of manufacturing the 100mm anti-aircraft gun and its necessary ammunition to counter aerial threats posed by enemy fighters, helicopters and cruise missiles," Defense Minister Mostafa Mohammad-Najjar said during the system's Sunday inauguration ceremony.

"One of the most important features of this weapon is its smart system which can track down the target and fire at it automatically," he added.

According to press tv, Mohammad-Najjar pointed out that the shells used in the system are equipped with a fuze which enables them to explode and terminate the target from a close distance even if they fail to hit it directly.

The 100mm anti-aircraft gun is an artillery system that can create a missile shield against enemy aircraft at medium and low altitudes.

Tehran began upgrading its defense capabilities after the eight year war that Iraq's former dictator Saddam Hussein waged against Iran in the 80s.

Although Saddam's military was heavily armed by the West- particularly the US- , he was unable to capture Iranian soil at the end of the war.

Western denial to sell Iran the weapons it needed to ward off a foreign aggressor prompted the government to establish a domestic military industry.

During the past years, Iranian experts have managed to design and manufacture various missiles, fighters, stealth aircraft, drones, submarines, radar systems, and military vessels.

News of the production of an anti-aircraft artillery system comes as Israel, the Middle East's sole nuclear, continues to threaten Iran over the country's nuclear program.

In quit remarkable comments, the Israeli ambassador in Australia Yuval Rotem said that Tel Aviv's recent military offensives in Gaza was a 'preintroduction' to dealing with the 'threat posed by a nuclear-equipped Iran'.

This is while Iran's nuclear program is under the constant supervision of UN nuclear watchdog inspectors, who have confirmed that the country's atomic activities have not diverted toward weaponization.

Long answer short

Interesting that the 1970's RM influence of Imperial days still survives in the uniforms and insignia of these Marine commandos.Oddly,even down to the continued wearing of puttees.

Interesting that the 1970's RM influence of Imperial days still survives in the uniforms and insignia of these Marine commandos.Oddly,even down to the continued wearing of puttees.

Its pretty intriguing really that an outfit of the Iranian military is essentially an exact copy of the British royal marines along with their training, doctrines, tactics etc. It was the british royal marines that initially created this unit for the shah....much of their current officers today were the first class of Iranians that graduated Sandhurst and performed so courageously during the Iran-Iraq war.

Remember it was these marines that destroyed the oil rigs during the Iranian navy's Operation Morvarid that crippled the Iraqi navy.

It was these Marines that cross Arvand Rood in the middle of the night by speedboats and set back the iraqi forces during their invasion of khorramshahr.

These marines are something else,by listing what they do,i need to write all day.When the army and IRGC could not free mahshar road to ahvaz,these guys freed it at km 9 of that road there cutting the throats of an entire iraqi division.

God Bless the martyrs of the Iranian Marine Commandos (Takavaran) and all of their sacrifices towards a free Iran!

Iran gears up for first satellite launch




Mon, 02 Feb 2009 10:51:23 GMT




Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad receives overview of the Omid satellite, February 4, 2008

Iranian scientists prepare for a new stage of the space program, with only weeks remaining before the country's first satellite launch.

Iran first announced plans to carry out a domestic satellite launch in September 2007 after testing its first domestically-produced satellite carrier, Safir 1.

At that time, the Head of the Iranian Aerospace Organization, Reza Taqipour, told Press TV that the launch of the Safir 1 was the first step toward sending the Iranian-made telecommunications satellite, Omid (Hope) into orbit.

In recent comments, however, Taqipour pointed to a more accurate deadline, announcing that Omid is just weeks away from launch.

"The satellite will be launched into space by the end of the year [the Iranian calendar year that ends on March 20], that is if no complications or changes in schedule occur," Taqipour told ISNA.

Omid is a research satellite that has been designed for gathering information and testing equipment. After orbiting for one to three months, Omid will return to earth, bringing back data with it that will help Iranian experts send an operational satellite into space.


Omid will carry experimental satellite control devices, communications and digital equipment, and power supply systems, to a distance of around 250 to 350 kilometers from the earth's atmosphere.

Completion of the semi-domestic research satellite, Meshbah, is another recent achievement of Iran's aerospace experts.

Mesbah, which is ready for launch into outer space, has been equipped with a store and forward communications receiver that can gather information from various parts of the planet and then transmit it back to a certain position.

According to Taqipour, Iranian scientists have also finished designing a satellite called Besharat, which is to be launched in a joint effort with the members of the Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC).

Taqipour said that the Aerospace Organization would soon send the details of the design to OIC countries to receive their suggestions and find out exactly to what extent each state plans to participate in the project.

Iran hopes to take great leaps in space technology in the coming decade, with plans to send an astronaut into space by 2021.
