Iran showcases new drones, missile weapons in a parade to commemorate National Army Day

In a military parade commemorating National Army Day, Islamic Republic of Iran Army units showcased a wide range of advanced equipment, including domestic missiles, tanks, armored vehicles, unmanned aerial vehicles, radar systems, and air defense missile systems.

Iran (IMNA) - The Iranian Army's four divisions, the Ground Force, the Navy, the Air Force, and the Air Defense, staged military parades in Tehran on Tuesday in the presence of President Ebrahim Raeisi.

Among the great accomplishments on show during the parade was the Mohajer-6 drone, which can carry guided bombs as well as sophisticated surveillance equipment. The Iranian Armed Forces have previously utilized it in warfare.

Kaman 22, Iran's first wide-body unmanned combat aerial vehicle, was also displayed, as were Iranian suicide drones such as Arash, Kian, and Karrar, which could be launched from both land and sea.

According to reports, Kaman 22 can carry 300 kg of explosives and has a range of about 3,000 kilometers (1,900 miles).

There were also demonstrations of the laser-guided air-to-ground Sattar missile, the Fakour-90 (Thoughtful-90) air-to-air missile, the Qaem surface-to-air missile, and the 20-kilometer-range Shafagh precision-guided missile.

The Army's air defense division unveiled a number of domestically developed missile systems, including the Khordad 15 surface-to-air missile system, the Mersad mid-range air defense system, the Nawab medium-range surface-to-air missile (SAM) system, the Nasser 40 navigation assistant radar system, and the Talaash (Endeavor) l system.

Iranian military specialists and technicians have made significant progress in recent years in manufacturing a wide spectrum of indigenous weaponry, allowing the armed forces to be self-sufficient in the armaments domain.

Iran argues that its military force presents no danger to regional nations, claiming that the Islamic Republic's defense posture is completely deterrence-based.
