Iranian Air Defense Systems

[SOHEIL]

I think By judging its size and classification along with derivatives specifications Iran has, This missile has a range around 40-50km as medium altitude SAM.

WRONG ... base on official video, The system has a range around 120 km ...

 

[BeyondHeretic]

I think soheil is right , can't you see how the missiles head is stuck out of its canister , it simply has more range than that.

Consider 9M317 Buk-M2 as an example. The sizes of them are more or less similar and 9M317 is one of the latest generation system in its class Russian industry developed. Fuel and Rocket motor on similar size and technology missiles doesn't make much differences among eachothers If you didn't develop an unknown type of new fuel or rocket motor technology that is able to burn much longer than Russian latest variant equivalents. 9M317 has a max range of 50km.

Chinese HQ-16 missile has a range of 40km.

 

[500]

Ok ... +150 km is correct !

Depending on guidance method. If its simple SAHR then about 40 km, if it is command +SAHR then it can be up to 70 km.

There is a difference between nominal altitude and practical altitude. Practical altitude should have 95% degree of confidence. 40 km and 120 km are both right answers.
I would like to bring up the u2 incident story. Soviet union hit it with an AD with a range of 40 km but u2 was in 65 km. The story was later revealed by son of Khrushchev.

Chinese HQ-16 missile has a range of 40km.

Let's talk about launchers !

 

[UKBengali]

The best thing about the SAM systems that Iran is developing is that the US and other hostile nations will have no idea how they work.

The Bavar-373 maybe even more of a headache than if Iran had gotten the S-300 from Russia.

Best of luck to Iran in developing a fully comprehensive air-defence system to keep aggressors at bay.

Nice.

Let's talk about launchers !

S-2 is almost same size as them introduced above but Let's talk If it gives you some clue about size of them.. Iranian one has a launcher like Patriot but Chinese version is introduced without launchers. Both uses similar 6x6 truck. The aft point of missile began from back tires and Fore sections of both missiles reach up to driver compartment.

Good luck to our Iranian brothers , mashallah

Altitude is a different story to talk. Those are effective ranges of related missiles.

For exm. If We consider Russian 9M317 Buk-M2 missile:

(Source: Wiki)
Engagement Range: Up to 50km
Engagement Altitude: Up to 25km

Outstanding analysis !

We have an idea how it works.
