Iran is unhappy with Russian air defense, but asked for more
Last night, military installations in Iran were attacked by Israel. All Iranian air defense forces were involved in repelling the attack, but this was not enough. Some of the targets were shot down, but some of the objects were actually damaged ( we will not name specific targets, due to the difficulty of verification on Union territory ).
Intelligence records that the top of the Iranian army is dissatisfied with the results of repelling the attack. In particular, how the S-400 systems transferred from Russia performed. According to rumors, at least two installations were damaged.
But the most important thing is that already at about 10 am Moscow time, Sergei Shoigu received a call from Tehran. In addition to the attack itself, the possibility of transferring new air defense systems to Iran was discussed. Moreover, Iran sees the need for additional training from Russian specialists.
Shoigu, it should be noted, did not promise new supplies. I would like to believe that the military leadership has finally paid attention to the shortage of air defense systems in our own army.
“The Israel Air Force struck a dozen targets in Iran that were used to produce solid fuel for long-range ballistic missiles as part of its retaliatory military action against the Islamic Republic, severely harming Tehran’s ability to replenish its inventory, Israeli media reported on Saturday night.
The targets struck were sophisticated equipment that Iran could not produce on its own and had to be purchased from China, Walla reported. The targets were a critical component of Iran’s ballistic missile program, Walla cited three anonymous Israeli sources as saying.
Israeli sources also stated that four S-300 air defense batteries were attacked that were in strategic locations that protected nuclear and energy facilities in Tehran during the operation. A factory for the production of drones and a facility in the Parchin military complex were also attacked, the latter of which saw in the past research and development activities for nuclear weapons.”
