A senior Iranian military commander says with the imminent production of a 3,000-kilometer-range radar system, the country can detect all flying objects in the region.
Deputy Head of Khatamolanbia Air Defense Base told Fars news agency on Saturday that the production project of Iran's new generation of air defense radar system with a range of 3,000 kilometers in radius is in its final stages.
"Any flying object that takes off in the region, for example from Qatar or Afghanistan, can be detected and confronted, if it has a hostile intent against Iran," Brigadier General Amir Hamid Arjangi said.
General Arjangi also noted that infrastructural measures and studies for determining the best location for the long-range radar system have been completed, adding that the system will become operational in the near future.
Based on operation plans, an adequate number of such radar systems will be installed throughout the country and there would be no problem regarding the number of stationed systems, the commander further explained.
"In addition to having a range of 3,000 kilometers, the altitude of the radar system is adjustable depending on aerial defense needs. The most important point about this system is detecting flying objects in remote areas," Arjangi added.
