TEHRAN -- Iran’s defense industry has developed over 900 defense and weapons systems, marking a significant leap from pre-revolution capabilities, according to the Ministry of Defense.
The armed forces, it said, are equipped with the most advanced defense and drone technologies.
“Our defense industry has reached a point where over 900 types of defense and weapon systems are now produced domestically,” it added.
Before the Islamic Revolution, Iran possessed only 31 basic defense equipment, the ministry said, adding that today, thanks to the support of Iranian youth and universities, the country has achieved a high level of defensive power, and its scientific rank has risen globally.
