The pic above is Alam al hoda radar

The TEL you see in the second pic is named ''Alam al hoda''

I posted the pic on IMF
 
I think what Jan's defense says is more plausible.
Raad=TEL without extra sensors.
Alamolhoda= TEL with electro optical seeker.
3th khordad=TELAR with phased array radar
Tabas= TELAR with less advanced radar.
Two surface-to-air missile (SAM) systems were displayed during the 11 May event, one of which, the 3 Khordad (the Persian date that Iran recaptured Khorramshahr in 1982), was revealed as a new system. However, the 3 Khordad appeared to be very similar to one seen in Iranian television footage broadcast in September 2012 showing the recently unveiled Ra'ad SAM being fired.

The Fars News Agency reported that the 'new' 3 Khordad can simultaneously engage multiple targets at a range of 50 km and an altitude of 25,000 m: similar statistics to those given for the Ra'ad.

A possible explanation is that the 3 Khordad is the transporter erector launcher and radar (TELAR) for the SAM system, while the Ra'ad name refers just to the loader-launcher vehicles controlled by the TELAR as they do not have their own integrated engagement radars.

The other SAM displayed on 11 May was labelled as the Tabas and was very similar to the 3 Khordad, but had a different radar. While the 3 Khordad TELAR has what looks somewhat like the phased-array radar used on the Russian Buk-M2 system, the radar on the Tabas was similar to the less sophisticated 'Fire Dome' used on the Buk-M1

you sure is less advance radar or system ??

Alamolhod air defense system has Sadid-630 miissile
which is twice size as Taer missile

++you forgot to add Raad 2 to the list

This is what I have been saying, as Yavar said you should add Raad-2 to that list.

I think 3rd Khordad is comparable to Buk-M2(with its phased array radar and capability to control two TELs) and Tabas is comparable to Buk-M1

Raad-2 has a new wheeled TEL and it also have several electro-optical system with a range of 80km.

Sadid-630 is interesting
 
the improved SA-6 is separate system and is got nothing to do with Raad system .
and i do not know what Russia BUK got ot with Iran or Iranian systems .
Well, for starters, they are similar in concept. More is known about them Hence, they can be used a baseline for comparison. Got a problem with that?
 
IRGC unveils new tactical ballistic missiles development
WHr8UM5.jpg

The Hormuz-1 and Hormuz-2 (behind) missiles are seen on their launcher during the exhibition held for Grand Ayatollah Khamenei on 11 May. The twin launcher is different from the single launcher normally used with the Fateh-110, but has been seen before in a September 2012 parade. Source: leader.ir
The unveiling of an Iranian copy of the Lockheed Martin RQ-170 unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) overshadowed other, potentially more significant, revelations that emerged when Supreme Leader Grand Ayatollah Ali Khamenei visited the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Aerospace Force on 11 May.

Arguably the most important weapons displayed for Khamenei were new variants of the Fateh-110 tactical ballistic missile called the Hormuz-1 and Hormuz-2.

IRGC Aerospace Force commander Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh said the Hormuz-1 was an anti-radiation variant and Iranian television showed the supreme leader watching a video of a test in which a missile destroyed a target with a radar antenna.

"The missile destroyed a 20 ft [6 m] container at a distance of 300 km during test fire," Brig Gen Hajizadeh was quoted as saying.

An operational anti-radiation version of the Fateh-110 would in theory allow Iran to suppress the radars essential to the ballistic missile defence systems deployed in the Persian Gulf [size=8pt](An incorrect term was corrected, the correct term for the southern Iranian waterway is: Persian Gulf)[/size] states.

It could also be used to target naval vessels by locking on to the energy emitted by their radars. Iran already has an anti-ship version of the Fateh-110 called the Khalij Fars, but this uses electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) terminal guidance.

Brig Gen Hajizadeh said the Hormuz-2 was an anti-ship missile, but the photographs of the event showed that, like the Hormuz-1, it had what appeared to be a radio frequency-transparent radome and not a window on its nose for EO/IR guidance. This raises the possibility that it uses active or passive radar terminal guidance. The latter is more likely as the missile would be less vulnerable to electronic countermeasures, but that would make it essentially the same as the Hormuz-1.

The red missile on the right is the Ya Ali cruise missile; the large ballistic missile behind it a mock-up of the solid-fuel Sejjil. (leader.ir)
]The IRGC displayed a previously unseen submunition warhead on what looked like a Fateh-110, although the missile was confusing labelled as the Zelzal Barshi. The 610 mm Zelzal heavy rocket is the unguided system developed into the Fateh-110 by fitting a guidance unit with canards between its warhead and motor, while 'barshi' is the Persian word for rain and is used by the IRGC to describe cluster munitions.

The missile's warhead section was cut away to show submunitions with pointed noses and cylindrical bodies inside; the Fars News Agency reported it contains 30 such bomblets, each weighing 17 kg (collectively weighing 510 kg).

Iran has previously announced that it has developed barshi warheads for its larger ballistic missiles - a development that would help mitigate their inaccuracy by turning them into more effective area-attack weapons - but this is the first time one has been unveiled for the Fateh-110, which IRGC officers say is a highly accurate weapon. The IRGC may consequently have developed the submunitions warhead for the unguided Zelzal, rather than its guided counterparts.

The IRGC created more confusion by labelling a smaller-diameter missile with guidance canards like those on the Fatah-110 as a Fajr-5: the name of Iran's 333 mm unguided rocket. This raises the possibility that Iran is developing a guided version of the Fajr-5 as it did with the Zelzal. The missile would be rail launched as the canards do not retract to fit inside the tube used with the unguided version.

This development could be a concern for Israel as Iran has already supplied Fajr-5s to Hizbullah in Lebanon and Hamas in the Gaza Strip. A guided version would allow the militants to carry out more accurate strikes up to 75 km into Israeli territory.

Another intriguing weapon system on display was the Ya Ali cruise missile, which is similar in general layout to, but somewhat smaller than, China's YJ-62 (export designation: C-602).

Like the YJ-62, the Ya Ali has an inlet for an air-breathing engine, possibly a version of the Tolou turbojet Iran already uses to power its longer-range anti-ship missiles, and wings to generate aerodynamic lift and extend its range, which the Fars News Agency reported to be 700 km.

These wings do not retract into the missile's body as they do on the YJ-62, meaning the Ya Ali could not be launched from a container. While the missile on display may have been an inaccurate mock-up or test vehicle, it had a large booster motor fitted with wings rather than fins, indicating it has been designed to be used on a cruise missile with fixed wings.

Tasnim News Agency - Iranian Fighters Armed with 700km Cruise Missiles

Iranian Fighters Armed with 700km Cruise Missiles
February 07, 2015 - 11:52
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The longest-range Iranian cruise missile, dubbed ‘Ya Ali’, has been provided with the capability to be mounted on the country’s entire fighter aircraft, a senior military official announced.

Speaking to the Tasnim News Agency, Iran’s Deputy Defense Minister Mohammad Eslami said the country’s whole warplanes can be armed with the air-to-ground missile.

With a range of 700 kilometers, Ya Ali outstrips all other Iranian cruise missiles.

The Iranian military experts and technicians have in recent years made great headways in manufacturing a broad range of indigenous equipment, making the armed forces self-sufficient in the arms sphere.

In December 2014, military technicians at the Iranian defense ministry equipped the Mirage fighter jets with home-made cruise missiles despite sanctions imposed on the country's Armed Forces.

Previously, Iran’s Mirage fighters were almost out of service and could not be used in military missions since the jets were compatible with Exocet missiles as well as some other types of Russian-made missiles and Iran was unable to import them because of sanctions.

Mirage fighter jets produced by the French aircraft manufacturer Dassault Aviation, have great capabilities in aerial combat and are in service in only six countries around the world, including Iran.
