Iranian Air Defense Systems

There is no data available about the number of home made systems that Iran has. But if the Ballistic Missiles is any clue, they are able to mass produce the AD systems in high numbers. They also have given it priority for almost a decade now.

ADS is the most important of the weapon systems and military equipment of any country. Now there is a threat from stealth cruise missiles and hypersonic maneuvering missiles and jamming missiles that may be involved in a war in the 2020s. ADS have to be on top game so the nation is not pushed around in a war.

Having spare ADS that will defend from regular cruise missiles is always good for Iran. Ample mobile radar too is vital to pick up that the enemy is attacking with regular cruise missiles and to send out ADS from underground cover to intercept. Although jamming missiles will mess up this strategy. These are the new arrivals of the next decade and Iran is prepare for the three if they want to not just win the war, but to stop it early on.

There is a reason to have limited ADS on deployment and have ample reserves is for this reason, the enemy will want to use up stockpiles of old cruise missiles on Iran, stockpiles that old ADS will hit. The newer cruise missiles should be up to ten times the cost of old cruise missiles.

Wow cool. I wonder how much line of defences does Pakistan have
 
Pashmam rikht. Excuse the obscenity, but this is rather impressive. Most video analyses skip the first ten lines...

:lol: thanks. yes it is, i wanted to show Iran's ability to hit cruise missile as some ppl say Iran dose not have the Layer defense in SAMs for that task so from AA guns i worked my way up so everyone can see what options Iran have to hit cruise missiles and other low flying missiles or bombs or fighter jets or UAVs.

Great showing all of them in one post.
 
Any modern military should have a MANPAD per squad with multiple missiles. And a radar based night vision MANPAD for each platoon.
 
I wished for someone in this forum to open up a new and stand alone topic about the EMP weapons.. When I read about all the electronic based weapon system that Iran is producing what come in to my mind is always how do these systems perform under EMP environment.. having worked on the Chip manufacturing and failure analysis I have seen first hand what happens to any electronic component exposed to these environments.. US military spend lots of $$$ on the specific methods to harden electronics against EMP effects.. so here is the question...Does Iran have techniques to harden their products..and also does Iran have EMP weapons...in the first few hours of any large scale conflict we will surely see the extensive use of EMP by the US forces to degrade most of Iran's defensive (AD) and offensive (missiles) equipment. EMP deserves its own section..

Any significant type of EMP is created by a thermonuclear explosion. So please explain to us how Iran would be exposed to “extensive use” of EMPs.

https://midimagic.sgc-hosting.com/emp.htm

This site has simple table comparing effect of an EMP source type weapon vs nuclear weapon vs natural emp sources (solar flare). As you can see EMP source weapons (ex CHAMP) effect range is either severely reduced to non existent.

Also explains how to insulate electronics against an EMP attack.

EMP shouldn’t be a major concern for Iran, instead cyber attacks on critical infastructure is much more probable threat.
