Revolutionary Guard Announces New Capabilities and Threatens Adversaries

The spokesperson for the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, Brigadier General Mohebbi, announced that the Aerospace Force has achieved what he described as a historic transformation, moving Iran from importing weapons to exporting them. He confirmed, according to statements reported by the "War Media" platform, that Iranian aerial technology has surpassed that of its adversaries. He spoke of developing capabilities that allow for continuous military production during wartime, and hinted at revealing additional achievements in the event of a third wave of confrontation.

Mohebbi stated that the "Shahed 136" drone has, in his words, become copied in most countries of the world, including the United States, and is produced and used under different names. He added that the Aerospace Force exports its products to a large number of countries, pointing to equipment mentioned in the reported text under the names of the "Arman" missile, the "358" drone, and the "Som Khordad" air defense system.

The spokesperson attributed Iran's ability to withstand its adversaries' equipment to prioritizing missile development. He also claimed that his forces managed, during the week or two preceding his statements, to bring down seven reconnaissance drones, which the text identified as the "MQM-170" model, intact to the ground, considering this proof of Iranian technological superiority. He also said that the Aerospace Force was able, after the twelve-day war, to target 260 enemy aircraft, without the text including details about the nature of these operations or their results.

Regarding the continuity of military manufacturing, Mohebbi explained that his country has developed flexible capabilities that allow for the continued production of missiles and drones during war and under bombardment, and that it has managed to move production facilities underground. He added that the outbreak of a third wave of confrontation would see the unveiling of advanced achievements of the Aerospace Force, threatening more powerful strikes if the adversary commits what he described as any mistake, and confirming the possession of options to target unexpected locations within an asymmetric confrontation.

The spokesperson touched upon the nuclear file, saying that if a decision is made to review the nuclear doctrine, the necessary preparations will be made, without providing additional details regarding the nature of these preparations or the content of the potential review.

Regarding space activities, Mohebbi considered the production of satellite launch vehicles and the development of a number of satellites to support space studies and research as achievements of the Aerospace Force. He mentioned the launch vehicles "Qased" and "Qaem 1", and the satellites "Noor 1", "Noor 2", and "Noor 3", confirming that they were developed based on local knowledge and the expertise of Iranian specialists, and contributed to supporting space research and studies in the country.

He also highlighted the role of continuous training for human resources, which he described as faithful, committed, and specialized, and the consolidation of their preparation model, in developing the military and offensive doctrine of the Islamic Republic. He explained that the Aerospace Force possesses multiple colleges and training centers, considering that faith, commitment, and the pursuit of achieving goals constitute essential elements of strength alongside military and armament capabilities.

Mohebbi announced the display of specialized equipment of the Aerospace Force in squares and streets across various Iranian provinces, in cooperation with municipalities, to enable citizens to get to know them up close. He added that the events of the week referred to in his statements will include the unveiling of a "special gift for the Iranian people," organizing exhibitions and media and artistic programs, showing films and documentaries, and hosting narrators to talk about the sacrifices of the force's members and commemorate its fallen, whom he described as martyrs.

These statements are reported according to the text provided by the "War Media" platform, and the text does not include independent evidence confirming the figures and claims related to targeting aircraft, downing drones, or technological superiority and the scale of the proliferation of Iranian equipment internationally.
