Iran unveils domestically manufactured VTOL drone




The Islamic Republic of Iran has unveiled a domestically manufactured vertical-takeoff-and-landing (VTOL) unmanned aerial vehicle, which can take photos, videos, and control traffic.


The Mahnad-41 drone, which was designed and manufactured by Iranian technicians of the Khallaqiyat Kavir Company, was put on display in the city of Isfahan during a ceremony attended by Iranian Deputy Minister of Science, Research and Technology Mohammad Mehdinejad Nouri on Sunday evening.

The VTOL drone is capable of taking photos and video footage while flying and can be used to control traffic, technically inspect electricity transmission towers, and generate digital topographic maps of target sites.

It can also be used in the agricultural sector, the petrochemical industry, and dam and tunnel construction projects.

The remote-controlled aircraft weighs about 680 grams, can fly at 56 kilometers (34 miles) per hour, and has a flight range of 400 meters.

Khallaqiyat Kavir Company Managing Director Hamed Bastani commented on the new drone at the unveiling ceremony in Isfahan, which is located about 340 kilometers (211 miles) south of Tehran.

Bastani said the low production cost compared to similar foreign aircraft and the fact that it is domestically designed and manufactured are some of the advantages of the Mahnad-41.

And several Iranian companies have already ordered a number of the drones, he added.

Iran unveiled its first domestically manufactured long-range combat drone, the Karrar (Striker), on August 23, 2010. It reportedly has a range of 1,000 kilometers (620 miles) and can carry two 115-kilogram bombs or a precision-guided munition weighing 227 kilograms.

The Karrar can bomb targets at high speed. It uses a rocket assist system to help it take off and is recovered by parachute.

The first Iranian medium-altitude long-endurance UAV, the Shahed-129 (Witness-129), was unveiled in September 2012. It is said that the aircraft is capable of carrying out combat and reconnaissance missions for 24 hours.

In recent years, Iran has made great achievements in its defense sector and has attained self-sufficiency in producing essential military equipment and systems.

Tehran has repeatedly assured other nations that its military might poses no threat to other countries since the Islamic Republic’s defense doctrine is based entirely on deterrence.

Damavand destroyer to join Iran naval fleet: Navy Cmdr.



Iranian Navy Commander Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari says the Navy will launch its new indigenous destroyer, Damavand, in the near future.


“The destroyer will join the Islamic Republic of Iran’s naval fleet in the Caspian Sea in a ceremony in the near future,” Sayyari said on Wednesday.

Among the achievements of the Iranian Navy are its manufacturing of submarines, presence on the high seas, and the ability to ensure security along shipping lines in international waters, said the senior commander.

He further referred to the dispatch of an Iranian naval fleet to the Russian port city of Astrakhan, adding that the move was aimed at sending a message of peace and friendship to, and consolidating relations with Russia.

On Jun 26, Deputy Commander of the Iranian Navy Rear Admiral Siavash Jarreh said, “Two missile-launching warships, which were manufactured by young Iranian specialists and joined the naval forces in 2003 and 2006, have been dispatched for the first time to Russia’s Astrakhan Port in the form of a naval group.”

In recent years, Iran Navy has been increasing its presence in international waters to protect naval routes and provide security for merchant vessels and tankers.

The Islamic Republic has repeatedly asserted that its overseas naval presence is meant to convey a message of peace and friendship to other countries.

Satellite Photos Reveal Construction At Iran's Island Drone Base

On the island of Qeshm in the Persian Gulf, on the northern-most end of the narrow Strait of Hormuz, Iran is making improvements to a drone base. The information was revealed by satellite images, which showed completed improvements to an airfield that were started 2011. The picture above, taken in March 2013, highlights these new developments: a 5,250-foot runway, a new radar array, an unidentified, 5-meter-long drone, new hangars, and a new communications antenna.
Qeshm sits at a particularly narrow part of an already narrow passage. The U.S. Energy Information Administration identifies the Strait of Hormuz as "the world's most important oil chokepoint," so an airfield on the island is incredibly useful for threatening or protecting oil tankers passing through the strait. Also, while the drone pictured above is of modest size, Iran has a larger drone type. Iran claims this larger drone, the Shahed 129, is capable of carrying missiles, and the improvements to the airfield might be designed with the Shahed 129 in mind.

S-300 Missiles for Iran ‘Dismantled, Scrapped' – Manufacturer


ZHUKOVSKY, August 29 (RIA Novosti) – The S-300 advanced air defense missile systems that Russia refused to deliver to Iran have now been completely dismantled and scrapped, the CEO of the company that built them said Thursday.

“The equipment that was to have been delivered to Iran is no more,” Almaz-Antey Corporation’s CEO Vladislav Menshchikov said. “We have dismantled it completely. Some elements, which could be used, have been used. Some have been scrapped.”

Every contract is made for a particular client and cannot be adjusted to the requirements of another, he said.

“The makeup is different, the specifications are different, and the software is different,” Menshchikov said.

Russia signed a deal in 2007 to provide Iran four S-300 batteries. Russia annulled the contract in 2010 due to concerns over its nuclear program. Iran filed a $4 billion lawsuit for compensation over the failed deal, which is pending review in an international arbitration court in Geneva.

Russian daily Vedomosti said in June, citing undisclosed Russian arms industry sources, that Russia had offered to provide Iran with Antei-2500 air defense systems, but the offer was never officially confirmed.

Anatoly Isaikin, the head of Russia’s state-run arms export monopoly Rosoboronexport said in mid-August his agency had no plans to provide Iran with replacements for the S-300 missile defense systems that Russia had refused to deliver.

S-300 is a family of air defense missile systems capable of engaging aerial targets from helicopters to cruise and ballistic missiles. The more capable variants of the system would be capable of engaging aircraft far inside the airspace of neighboring states to Iran, according to analysts.

Israel, in particular, lobbied hard against the S-300 deal, according to Israeli media, over concerns that any Israeli air attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities would be made far more dangerous if Tehran operated the system.

Iran tests new radar system

TEHRAN – Iran has tested its newest long-range phased array radar system, named the Asr (Era), an official at the Iranian Navy announced on Tuesday.

Rear Admiral Ali Gholamzadeh told reporters that the radar system had been designed and manufactured by Iranian experts.

The radar system will be installed on a number of the Navy’s warships, he said.

He also said that Iran was building new missiles and torpedoes, adding that good news about new surface-to-air missiles would be announced in the near future.

He went on to say that the missiles used by naval vessels had been upgraded and their range and accuracy had been improved.

In addition, Gholamzadeh said that the Sahand destroyer would become operational in the next Iranian calendar year, which starts on March 20, 2014.

The Sahand destroyer, which is equipped with advanced systems, was initially launched in November 2012.

Iran’s first domestically manufactured destroyer, the Jamaran, was launched in February 2010.

The Iranian Navy has announced it plans to build new destroyers which are capable of firing missiles.

Vladimir Putin to offer Iran's Hassan Rowhani missile systems, nuclear reactor

Russian president Vladimir Putin will reportedly offer to supply missile systems to Iran and build a second nuclear power reactor in the country, a move likely to gladden Tehran and trouble the United States.

Iran's new president Hassan Rowhani is set to meet Mr Putin on the sidelines of a summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation held in Kyrgyzstan on Friday, in the newly elected centrist cleric's first meeting with a major world leader.

The Kommersant business daily reported on Wednesday that Mr Putin will offer to supply Iran with S-300 air defence missile systems as well as build a second reactor at the Bushehr nuclear plant.

The S-300 offer would be a particularly contentious development given it would essentially revive a contract for similar missile systems that Russia cancelled in 2010 after heavy Israeli and US pressure.

Mr Putin's spokesman Dmitry Peskov told Kommersant that Mr Putin and Mr Rowhani were expected to discuss "working together in the nuclear energy sphere" and "questions of military technical cooperation" at the summit.

Mr Putin's meeting with the leader of Moscow's long-standing regional ally comes shortly after he hosted Western powers for a G20 summit focused on Syria in Saint Petersburg this month.

In 2007, Russia signed a contract to deliver five of the advanced S-300 ground-to-air weapons systems - which can take out aircraft or guided missiles - to Iran at a cost of $859 million.

However, in 2010, then-president Dmitry Medvedev cancelled the contract after coming under strong US and Israeli pressure not to go ahead with the sale of the weapons system, drawing vehement protests from Tehran.
Russia to supply Iran if US strikes Syria

Russia could increase supplies of arms to Iran if the United States decides on military intervention in Syria, the head of the lower house's committee on international relations, Alexei Pushkov, told parliament on Wednesday.

"If the 'party of war' prevails in the United States... then I consider it absolutely justified to suggest considering more serious measures by Russia, including broadening of supplies of defensive weapons to Iran," Mr Pushkov was quoted as saying by Interfax.

Iran is Syrian president Bashar al-Assad's main regional ally and has warned Western powers against intervention in the conflict.

Moscow has cooperated with Iran on nuclear power generation despite international opposition to a program that Western powers and Israel believe is being used as a smokescreen for building a nuclear bomb.

Iran, however, insists that its nuclear ambitions are peaceful.

Russia had urged the West to soften sanctions against Iran after the June election of Mr Rowhani, a centrist cleric, expressing hopes for a major breakthrough in the nuclear standoff.

Mr Rowhani has pledged greater transparency in talks.

Commander: Iranian Navy Choppers Equipped with Anti-Submarine Weaponry

TEHRAN (FNA)- The Iranian Navy has equipped its choppers with advanced anti-submarine weapons and sonar systems, Lieutenant Commander of the Iranian Army's naval force Rear Admiral Gholam Reza Khadem Biqam announced on Sunday.

"The Navy's choppers are now used for anti-submarine operations and this type of mission is fulfilled by using different sonar (radars) systems and proper weapons," Khadem Biqam told FNA on Sunday.

"Similar to the Air Borne unit (of the Iranian Army Ground Force) which has reconnaissance, transportation and combat helicopters, the Navy's choppers carry out missions in different arenas, including mine-sweeping operations," he added.

Khadem Biqam said that the Navy's choppers are also used for detecting sub-surface enemy targets and in the joint operations of  warships, choppers and submarines.

He also added that Defense Ministry is working to upgrade and improve helicopter rocket and missile systems.

In relevant remarks in August, Rear Admiral Khadem Biqam said the Navy is becoming equipped with more advanced and smarter torpedoes.

“Torpedos which have been used in different wargames, including surface and subsurface torpedoes .., are smart and enjoy hi-tech; yet upgrading them to become even smarter is on the Navy's agenda,” Rear Admiral Biqam said in an exclusive interview with FNA at the time.

Iranian torpedos, launched by submarines, are able to operate under different weather conditions, in both deep and shallow waters and are equipped with an advanced safety and arm system.

The Iranian Navy conducted a series of wargames in the country’s Southern waters in December to test its capabilities in defending Iran's water borders and regional interests.

The wargames, codenamed 'The Great Naval Wargames of Velayat 91', lasted 6 days and covered around one million square kilometers from the Strait of Hormuz to the waters up to the 18-degree latitude.

The Navy tested different submarines and torpedos during the Great Naval Wargames of Velayat 91.

Si vous le dites d'accord, mais je reste sceptique sur le fait que le VM est une arme tactique destinée à protéger des forces mobiles, et donc a des contraintes qui influencent sa portée et la taille des missiles, alors que les PMU est créé pour protéger des sites fixes et donc "interdire" des zones à l'ennemi ce qui correspond plus aux besoins iraniens qui s'articulent principalement autour de la protection des sites nucléaires, en plus il excelle aussi dans l'ABM.

non pyro le V/VM/antey2500 est du meme role sauf que c´est la version "army" pour proteger les grandes unités importantes et installaations vitales,le P/MU sont version "air force" semi-mobile/static pour des sitres comme tu dis,mais les caracteristiques sont les meme voir mieux avec les V/VM surtout le missile 9M82M qui performe mieux que ceux du PMU2 voir egalise avec celui du S400 parfois,ses missiles ont plus d´energie kinetique que ceux des P ca tape plus vite

OK yak merci pour l'info, mais dans ce cas je ne comprend pas pourquoi les russes ne voulaient pas lacher le PMU1

L'IRAF vient de recevoir les premiers versions AM des missiles anti-navires Nasr ( 35Km ) et Qader ( 200Km ) ... on peut voir aussi le Noor/C802
