UAVs like Raad (Thunder) and Nazir (Warning) will be produced. These UAVs should be able to conduct operations to attack long range and high precision, "said General Ahmad Vahidi, whose remarks were reported by state television.

General Heshmatollah Kasiri, top commander of the Air Force, also said Monday the Iranian news agency IRNA that Iran would "soon" to deploy an air defense system missile with capabilities equal or superior system advanced Russian S-300. General Kasiri has also criticized Russia for failing to deliver, for " unacceptable reasons ", the S-300 missile that Tehran ordered in 2007. He however assured that the Iranian production was sufficient for all the country's needs for air defense. The S-300 missiles can shoot down aircraft, cruise missiles and ballistic missiles over 145km and at altitudes of about 90,000 feet (27.400m). The acquisition of these missiles would significantly improve the air defense capabilities of Iran, while Israel does not rule out a military operation against Iranian nuclear sites. The State of Israel and the United States have sharply criticized the Russian-Iranian S-300.
