Iran Air Defense Force unveils ‘Bahman’ radar system

TEHRAN (Iran News) – Unveiling ceremony of ‘Bahman’ radar system and ‘Nejat’ Mobile operating room from the projects of the Air Defense of the Islamic Republic of Iran was held Saturday morning in the presence of Iran’s Commander of Army Air Defense Force Brigadier General Alireza Sabahifard and the Vice President for Science and Technology Sorena Sattari.

“One of the projects unveiled today is ‘Bahman’ Radar System and its example has not been seen anywhere in the world,” said Sabahifard in the unveiling ceremony.

“One of the characteristics of the ‘Bahman’ Radar System is that it is passive, which can detect and identify all conventional aircraft and drones with a very small cross-section,” he added.

Referring to  ‘Nejat’ Mobile operating room, he said, “The next project is the mobile operating room, which is self-propelled in all battlefields and critical situations such as floods and earthquakes, and carries out its mission automatically.”

The joint security operations center (SOC) was inaugurated in the presence of the Second-in-Command of the Khatam al-Anbia Air Defense Base Brigadier General Ghader Rahimzadeh.

SOC is the regional Air Defense Command and Operations Center, which is responsible for commanding and controlling joint air defense operations between the Army and the IRGC in a specific region of the country.

“The enemies of Islamic Iran from the beginning could not cause any damage to the Establishment and the Islamic Revolution and this false idea will not be realized,” said Rahimzadeh in the inauguration ceremony.

“Unity and empathy between the army and the IRGC staff today is greater than ever, and we are witnessing a regular set of integrated air defense networks to protect the skies of Islamic Iran,” he added.

Rahimzadeh called prudent leadership, people, and Islam as three important and influential components in achieving the victory of the Islamic Revolution.
