Iran Upgrades Missile Systems

Iran’s defense minister said his country has succeeded in upgrading and improving its moderate-range Mersad missile defense systems.

Brig. Gen. Ahmad Vahidi told the Fars News Agency the upgraded missile system is capable of destroying advanced airplanes in low and mid altitudes and has the ability to hit a number of targets simultaneously.

“The Mersad missile defense system is comprised of different target tracing and tracking radars, soft and hardware networks, launch pads for Shahin missiles and a command and control center,” Vahidi said.
