Iran deploys new air defense system with supersonic missile​

Iranian air forces said the tests of the new air defense system “Mersad” equipped with Shahin missiles were accomplished successfully. Meanwhile, the country’s nuclear industry boasts to have enriched over 50kg of uranium.



The Mersad system equipped with Shahin missiles is capable of tracing and targeting any aircraft at a 70 to 150km range and is considered a medium-range system, as reported by Iranian FARS news agency. Besides, the Mersad system comes with an advanced radar signal processing technology, a modern launcher and electronic targeting and guidance systems.




The ground-to-air Shahin missile, tested back in April this year, is able to hit enemy jet fighters and helicopters at supersonic speed.
Mersad systems were supplied to the country's air defense units on Sunday.

Nothing new about it! It is a reverse engineered Hawk missile.

Indeed its MIM-23 Hawk, Just another experiment.

Indeed its MIM-23 Hawk, Just another intellectual theft.

I had to, it was wide open.

Let see if Israel do some thing funny how Iran will respond

what is reverse engineering?

what is reverse engineering?

you break a thing apart (hardware (any hardware not necessarily computer) or software) whose copy you have some how got hold of and try to figure how it was put together and how it works. Then you produce your own copies of it..... called reverse engineering.

Reverse because you did not design it originally but simply tore it apart and made new copies of it.

Example of reverse engineering
J-11... Chinese copy of the Russian Su-27
Tu-4 ....... Russian copy of the American B-29

And
Windows ..... Microsoft copy the Apple Mac

Highly doubtful the ones the Iranians had to copy date back to the shah.

New Mersad system is not a direct copy of I-HAWK. But an upgraded one with new radars and a fully electronic system. Range of the missiles have been increased too (By changing the propellant).

this is what US did after WW2 about German technology
