Liqaye Posted October 28, 2003 The islamic republic of iran has been accused several times of aiming to develop a nuclear weapon, but this is just part of the countries armed forces drive towards self sufficiency in arms. Not for iran a glorious airforce that they cannot acquire the spare parts needed in times of war. Nor sub-standard machinery that they are forced to purchase hook-line and sinker. Self reliance, autarchy what ever, all MUSLIM and third world countries should follow their lead. These are examples of WHOLLY INDEGENOUS military materiel of iran Takavar all terrain jeeps Zolfaqir 3 tanks . Zelzal 1 tatical missile 1500 km range(yea baby never know when telaviv will wake up to a bowl of sunshine) This light truck is carrying an unknown battlefield-surveillance radar, apparently based on the French-made Rasit, several of which are known to have been captured from Iraq... Fully indegenous T-72 tank complete with reactive armour. Boraq IFV (infantry fighting vehichle) Another "star" of the parade was the Shahab 3 IRBM, which entered service with the IRIAF only recently (Iranian missile forces are controlled by two services: the IRIAF (official air force), and the IRGC (Revolutionary Guards): the IRIAF is known to have a swiftly developing force of ten squadrons equipped with tactical- and intermediate-range ballistic missiles). The Fajr 3 Multiple launch rocket system. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
