Russia to Deliver S-300 Missile System to Iran

Russia to Deliver S-300 Missile System to Iran

Defense Minister Mostafa Mohammad Najjar said here on Wednesday.‏

Najjar dismissed any link between the said contract and the recent report by 16 US intelligence bodies which confirmed the peaceful nature of Iran`s nuclear activities, adding that the date of S-300 delivery would be revealed to public later in future.‏

S-300 is considered as among the most advanced anti-missile systems in the world capable of targeting various types of missiles and warplanes at different altitudes. Despite Tour-M which can identify and trace targets merely at low altitudes, S-300 enjoys the required capabilities to trace and destroy targets at low and high altitudes, granting Iran air superiority over enemy missiles and aircrafts.‏
