Iranian Air Defense System, S-300 Work in Tandem in War Game

On the final day of the second stage of the large-scale war game on Wednesday, the Iranian air defenses utilized the Bavar 373 and the S-300 missile systems integrated into the nationwide air defense network.

Operating in tandem, the two air defense missile systems detected and detonated high-altitude targets.

On February 2, the Defense Ministry unveiled an upgraded version of ‘Bavar 373’ air defense missile system, whose launcher stations have been equipped with separate radar sets that provide detection and tracking of targets as well as fire control, allowing each launcher to act independently without reliance on a central radar.

Iranian military technicians have in recent years made great headways in manufacturing a broad range of indigenous equipment, making the armed forces self-sufficient in the arms sphere.
