The air defense commander underlined that Sepehr could successfully pass “all tests”, the report continued.
Earlier today, the radar went under a last test of operation and assessment, and General Shahram said the results were successful and “the information gathered by the radar during its last assessment test today was for the first time fed into the country’s integrated radar and air defense network”.
The General added that the “Sepehr provides the air defense units to identify hostile targets far from the country’s borders, leaving them with more time for decision-making and reaction.”
