Iran Devised Missile System to Penetrate Enemy’s Networks
A senior Iranian commander stressed Friday that his country has devised its missile defense systems in a way to penetrate the enemy's missile system networks.
In an interview with the Iranian Students News Agency [ISNA, the Deputy Commander of Iran's Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) Brigadier General Hossein Salami revealed that "Tehran develops every defense system based on the technical, tactical and operational capabilities of the enemy's missile systems."
Salami's comments came in response to a question about the deployment of Western missile systems in certain regional countries.
The senior commander stressed that Iran is able to counter the enemy's missile systems by developing technical capabilities and employing innovative tactics.
In March, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton held talks in Saudi Arabia about plans for a Persian Gulf missile system to counter what she described as potential threats from Iran.
She said in an address to a [Persian] Gulf Cooperation Council-US Strategic Cooperation Forum in Riyadh that Washington was aiming for "practical and specific steps to strengthen our mutual security, such as helping our militaries improve interoperability, cooperate on maritime security and missile defense, and coordinate responses to crises."
Iranian officials have repeatedly stressed that Tehran follows a defense doctrine, reiterating that the Islamic Republic poses no threat to any regional country.
