Pentagon: C-300, which Iran will receive, will not cancel a possible operation to destroy its nuclear facilities

The transfer by Moscow of the Iranian army of ZRS C-300 will not close the possibility of the United States attacking Iranian nuclear installations. Anti-aircraft systems will only complicate the task, said the head of the Committee of Chiefs of Staff Martin Dempsey. This newspaper reports Look.

“Delivering C-300 to Iran would make the likely use of military power more difficult, but not impossible,” the general said.

The newspaper reminds that at present Moscow and Tehran are discussing the issue of the supply of C-300 complexes, and Iran has stated that it would like to receive more advanced versions of the complexes.

Israel and the United States opposed the supplies.

In general, Amer is right, these aggressors and C 300 may not be stopped - especially since there will be a bit of them

Therefore, we must still deliver to Iran with 400 - do not regret it - this is our cover from the south. Even China can wait - they are not going to bomb it right now

And the Armor for cover with 400 - all as for yourself. And specialists - instructors. The Iranians deserve it all - fighting the aggressors in Syria is essentially for us for all

And we get the normal layered air defense of Iran!

[Koloradovatnik]

The supply of one single air defense system, indeed, will not create special problems for the US Air Force and its allies.
Iran needs to create a full-fledged air defense system from several dozen at least C-300, Armor-S systems for their cover, ACS, radar control systems for airspace, such as Don or Voronezh, fighter-interceptors.
It may stop Israeli, Saudi and American hawks.
Creating such a system may take more than a dozen years, but the return on such an air defense system will fully reimburse the costs of creation.

Blows are delivered in time, in squares and in the air, from different azimuths, altitudes, flight profiles, different types of weapons, in their combination and the use of electronic warfare, anti-aircraft missile systems, false targets and distracting attacks.

Spending on cruise missiles, missiles from the S-300PMU2 is very wasteful and ineffective.

Well there is not quite direct and not immediately. After the planned suppression of long-range air defense, headquarters, airfields with interceptors. They produce B1 and B2 and, with planned bombs (up to 40 km), they first finish air defense, and then they launch anti-bunker bombs at nuclear centers hidden deep in mountain tunnels.

But again, these are plans, as I noted above, in Iran is not a plain, and the mountainous terrain and the Kyrgyz Republic will be very difficult to pass there. At heights there is a motley anti-aircraft defense, from large-caliber machine guns, to anti-aircraft and missile defense. All this is connected to a single system. Look at YouTube how they adapted the Soviet KS-19 to a single system. There is a soldier with a laptop and a whole battery controls. All old systems have undergone modernization several times, including with the help of Chinese experts.

I see an option in which Israeli pilots strike with the full support of the American military infrastructure (additional adjustment, arsenal). Of course, the possibility of striking with the presence of the C 300 will be complicated. The Americans drove the whole aircraft carrier to the Iranian shores and as soon as they didn’t scare ... And still they didn’t dare to strike ... And with the C 300, there will be even more obstacles ... Iran-it’s not for them to bomb Libya ... They will rake in full!

Do not flatter our common enemies, the USA and Israel, which, in view of their inability to defeat our country in an "open" battle, seek to destabilize the situation in our country in any way and stop the rearmament of our army and industry in this case by "sending" terrorists fed by them to us.

Pentagon: C-300, which Iran will receive, will not cancel a possible operation to destroy its nuclear facilities

To reliably protect their territory from air strikes, the Iranians need the S-300, since it is a mobile long-range air defense system (40-200 (300) km for an aerodynamic target, 5-40 km (for a ballistic target). So far, the only Iranian long-range air defense system is S-200VE "Vega-E", with a range of 240 km, 10 launchers and about 200 missiles of which were delivered from the USSR in the early 90s. Missile divisions of the S-200VE air defense missile systems are dispersed in 5-7 positions covering the main protected areas of the country Unlike the standard positions of the S-200 divisions, in Iran they usually consist not of six launchers, but of only two 5P72VE launchers for one 5N62VE target illumination radar.However, given the low maneuverability of the air defense missile system (it takes up to a day time) and their significant vulnerability, since the positions of the air defense missile systems are known, they are few and also the fact that they will be hit by the CD and anti-radar missiles, the S-200 air defense systems cannot provide reliable protection.

The Bavar-373 (Vera-373) air defense system created in Iran is hardly capable of replacing the S-300; it is rather a demonstration vehicle that is not a full-fledged replacement for the S-300.

Iran’s medium-range air defense system is also represented by the obsolete air defense system, the American MIM-23 Hawk, which was supplied by the Shah. There are more than three dozen ZRK batteries.

Iran, has established its own production of a modernized version of the "Hawk" called "Mersad" ("Ambush"). One of the most notable differences was the emergence of an optoelectronic target detection and tracking system. For these air defense systems in Iran in recent years, two new types of anti-aircraft missiles have been produced, called "Shahin" and "Shalamcha". The main difference between the Shahin missile defense system is its longer range than conventional missiles, although it is not known how much longer it is.

In addition, Iran is trying to increase the mobility of the Mersad and Hawk air defense systems by installing its launchers on various types of off-road vehicles.

In total, it is believed that in Iran there are about 150 "Hawk" air defense missile launchers and 210 "Mersad" air defense missile systems.

[Roman 1977]

During the Iran-Iraq war, Iran purchased a Chinese copy of the C-75-HQ-2J air defense system. According to experts, Iran has a 45 PU HQ-2J.

Iran independently produces missiles for the air defense system called Sayyad-1 and Sayyad-1A, the latter of which, according to official data, has an infrared homing system. At the moment, the effectiveness of such systems in the event of a big war is extremely low, because the positions of these air defense systems are few and they can be easily detected, and just folding the HQ-2 battery in one position and deploying to another will take several hours at best. The fact that these air defense systems are still being modernized and remain in service is a clear consequence of the lack of modern air defense systems and the fear of possible single strikes on covered stationary objects.
The air defense units of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps of Iran are armed with several 9K12E Kvadrat anti-aircraft missile batteries (8 PU). Where they got from the Iranians is unknown, according to some sources they are trophies of the Iran-Iraq war, according to others they were bought in Romania, according to the third in Russia in 1995-1996.

In 2005, the Granit enterprise of the Almaz-Antey air defense concern officially announced that it had begun work on the modernization of the Kvadrat air defense system in Iran. What exactly was modernized and to what level remained unknown. According to some reports, in the course of this modernization, the Iranian "Squares" could receive new missiles 9M317E. With these missiles, the range of destruction of targets by the Kvadrat air defense missile system increases to 42 km, the altitude to 22 km, and the speed of the targets hit increases to 1200 m / s.
The most modern air defense systems of the Iranian army are 9K331 "Tor-M1", under the 2005 contract, Russia supplied 29 complexes to Iran, and there are claims that some of them are in a towed version, but there is no photo-video documentary evidence of this.

Although the "Tor-M1" are undoubtedly the best air defense systems in Iran and have very high mobility and noise immunity, they are still short-range systems with a short target range and are incapable of attacking targets at high altitudes.

[Roman 1977]

In the 1990s, 30 FM-80 air defense systems were purchased - an export version of the Chinese short-range air defense system HQ-7, which in turn is a copy of the French Crotal. A launcher with 4 missiles in transport and launch containers (TPK) is placed on a two-main towed trailer, together with a monopulse radar for target tracking and guidance and an optoelectronic module with a television target tracking system, an infrared direction finder for automatic tracking of missiles, etc.

In Iran, FM-80 PUs are used together with Skyguard, the Swiss fire control system, and 35-mm paired chargers can also be included in this complex. Currently, under the name Ya Zahra 3, Iran has launched its own production of PU ZRK, as well as a missile defense system called Shahab Thaqeb.
In order to increase the mobility of the air defense system in Iran, its self-propelled version was created under the name Herze 9. The self-propelled launcher was placed on the chassis of a two-axle truck MAN 10-153, while the number of transport-launch containers with missiles was reduced from four to two.

In addition to this "splendor", Iran has about 30 English Rapier complexes, delivered under the Shah in the 70s of the last century with a range of 400-6800 m. In total, it is believed that Iran has about 30 launchers of this air defense system.

At one time, the Iranians also tried to turn the Rapier into a self-propelled air defense system.

Under the Shah, the Tiger Cat air defense system was also delivered to Iran. It is a weatherproof, non-automatic air defense system designed to combat low-flying subsonic helicopters and aircraft. The complex is fired at targets only from the spot. The maximum firing range is 6 km, the maximum target destruction height is 3 km. In total, 15 air defense systems were delivered, what their technical condition is is unknown, but the fact that the Iranians do not demonstrate them at parades and exercises suggests certain thoughts.

[Roman 1977]

There is information that 10 Pantsir C1 air defense missile systems were delivered to Iran, and the delivery was carried out through Syria, however, there is no documentary evidence of this fact.
Also at Iranian parades they regularly show a copy of the Buk under the designation Ra'ad with its own Taer-2 SAM. Moreover, the Iranians claim that several modifications of the air defense system have been created:
- simply Ra'ad are self-propelled launchers with external target designation without their own radar target illumination and guidance

- Ra'ad 2 with an electro-optical detection and tracking system
- Tabas - this is the first version of a combat vehicle with a radar highlighting targets and guidance, a form very similar to that on a combat vehicle Buk-M1.
- 3rd of Khordad - version of the combat vehicle with the new radar and missiles Taer-2B.
But what is their current state and whether they are in service with the weapons is unknown to me.

Iran has a large number of anti-aircraft guns-around 1700 various systems:
- 100-mm KS-19, on the basis of which the Sair launcher was created. In the course of the ongoing deep modernization, the guns are equipped with an automatic loading system and electric power tracking drives, which are connected to an optoelectronic fire control system, which provides automatic gun guidance and firing on command from the control point. At the moment, "Sair" is the largest-caliber land-based automatic anti-aircraft artillery system in the world.

- a number of 57-mm C-60, which are either acquired in the USSR or captured during the Iran-Iraq war. In the last decade, they seem to have begun to withdraw to the reserve.

One of the main anti-aircraft installations of the Iranian armed forces are the 35-mm systems of the Swiss company Oerlikon, purchased from Shah, and their Iranian modified versions, called Samavat, produced with 2008. Anti-aircraft guns can be aimed at the target automatically using the Swiss control system Skyguard fire, semi-automatically using electric pointing drives or manually. It is believed that Iran has about 100 similar guns.

[Roman 1977]

The most common anti-aircraft installation in Iran are the 23-mm ZU-23, manufactured in Iran under license. In total, it is believed that about 1500 memory-23 has been delivered and released

In addition to the towed version, the armament consists of self-propelled Sepehr, installed on an all-terrain vehicle, tracked BRAQ own-produced vehicles, American M-113 and BTR-60PB (remote-controlled).

Moreover, the Iranians are actively modernizing the ZU-23, so they created the ZNU with a 6 trunk.

Currently, the Mesbah-1 anti-aircraft complex is in service, in which 8 barrels ZU-23 are installed on the gun carriage of the Swiss ONerlikon 35 memory, their automatic horizontal and vertical guidance on the target and shooting is carried out with the help of electric drives, and the search and tracking of the target carried out using radar and an optical-electronic system.

[Roman 1977]

In addition to the above, there is evidence that Iran possesses a number of obsolete Soviet 37-mm 61-K memory units of the 1939 model of the year captured during the Iran-Iraq war, as well as 100-180 Swedish 40-mm memory Bofors L / 70, which is quite likely since this memory under the designation Fath-40, is licensed and armed with ships of the Iranian Navy.

Iran also has a number of ZPUs: 14,5-mm ZPU-2 and ZPU-4.

And here, the Iranians soriginally, first replacing the 14,5-mm CPV with the DShK produced in Iran, and then creating the ZPU-4, ZPU with the 8 DShK machine guns on a carriage.

ZSU are represented by Soviet models ZSU-57-2 and ZSU-34-4 "Shilka".
ZSU-57-2 were delivered to Iran during the check in the 60-s, it is generally believed that 80 are armed with similar ZSU. And now they are already in reserve.

ZSU-23-4 "Shilka" were acquired in the 70s, plus some were captured from Iran.

In total, it is believed that Iran has more than a hundred ZSU-23-4, and some of them have been upgraded to the Soheil version, supplemented by MANPADS missiles.

[Roman 1977]

It is believed that the Iranians have up to 1000 MANPADS of various types as part of the ground forces, mainly of Soviet production. Including: 200 "Strela-3", 250 "Strela-2M", 190 Chinese HN-5A (clone "Strela-2"), 100 "Igla-1", 50 RBS-70 and 50 "Stinger".

In addition, Iran produces Misagh-1 and 2 MANPADS, which are copies of the Chinese QW-1 \ 1M family of MANPADS.

Also, on the basis of SUVs in Iran, such systems are made from connected 2 or 4 MANPADS, similar to our "Dzhigit".

[Roman 1977]

It is better than in the air defense and the situation in the Iranian Air Force. Officially, they have over 400 combat aircraft, which is a significant number. But the bulk of them, namely American cars, were delivered before 1979, i.e. before the overthrow of the shah. Thus, the youngest of them is 36 years old. the lack of spare parts forces us to engage in "cannibalism", when one flight-fit is assembled from several aircraft ...
Fighter aircraft:
44 Grumman F-14 Tomcat, a total of 79 machines of this type were delivered to Iran, however, losses during the Iran-Iraq war and the lack of spare parts sharply reduced their number. In order to prevent Iran from receiving spare parts, the Americans scrapped all their F-14s. In addition, the absence of the AIM-54 Phoenix missiles, which are the main weapons of the Tomkats, makes the Iranians go to the wildest "improvisations", such as the use of Hawk air defense missile systems and our R-27s.

24-25 MiG-29s, of which 24 (18 MiG-29 and MiG-29UB) were supplied by the USSR in 1990-1991, 4 more (1 MiG-29UB) flew from Iraq during the "Desert Storm" in 1991, part of the MiG-29 was repaired and modernized in Iran.

24 9 according to other sources, 10 remains)) Dassault Mirage F1, which flew from Iraq in the 1991 year.

[Roman 1977]

60 Northrop F-5 Tiger IIs, built in the late 1950s, delivered under the Shah (140 delivered). According to some reports, out of 60-30 units of Azarakhsh fighter-bombers, which is an almost complete copy of the F-5, with two RD-33 engines from the MiG-29 and our own Fazatron N019ME Topaz radar (an improved version of the NO 19 fighter station MiG-29, which received the ability to "work" on ground targets). That is, in essence, it corresponds to the American F-20 Tigershark of the 80s of the last century.

5-30 single-seat Saeqeh interceptors (Saegheh or Sa'qeh - "thunderclap") are a further development of Azarakhsh, which differs only in a single cockpit, a modified tail section (a la "Hornet") and a nomenclature of weapons.

64-65 American McDonnell-Douglas F-4 Phantom II-delivered even in check (delivered 220 machines).

20-24 Chengdu F-7M Airguard-Chinese clone of the MiG-21. set to make up for losses during the Iran-Iraq war, in service with the IRGC aviation. The 7 Iraqi MiG-23MLD that flew to Iran were introduced into the Air Force, one of which is unsuitable due to the lack of spare parts.

[Roman 1977]

No less limited and shock capabilities of the Air Force:
30 Su-24 6 of which were purchased in the USSR in 1990-1991. and 24 are distilled from Iraq in 1991.

6 Su-25, the total number of Iranian Air Forces was 13 Su-25, 7 of which were distilled from Iraq in 1991, and 5 were bought either in Russia or in Belarus in 2000, 01.07.2014, Iraqi Su-25 were driven back to Iraq with Iranian pilots to fight ISIS.

In addition, Iranian-made Tazarv 25 jet UBS with a propulsion unit from a single turbojet engine created on the basis of General Electric J85-13 or J85-17 (used on F-5 fighters) with a remote afterburner can be used for strikes against ground targets.

in order to increase the impact capabilities of its Air Force, Iran accepts attempts to repair and commission Iraqi Su-22 9 flew 44 cars) and even MiG-23BN 9 flew 4 cars).

[Hell's Angel]

will not cancel a possible operation to destroy its nuclear facilities
Maybe it won't. But it will greatly complicate. When it was only announced about this (deliveries of S - 300 to Iran), there was a heated discussion at VO about the capabilities of the Iranian air defense after the S - 300 was put on duty. One of the commentators explained "on the fingers" that this was not enough against a massive air raids and cruise missiles of the United States and Israel. Apparently the guy is "in the subject" about air defense capabilities. And Iran will not be able to build an echeloned system for a long time. Too expensive and complicated. And Iran is still under sanctions and oil is getting cheaper.

[provincial]

if the S-300 doesn’t help, we’ll put the S-400 there would be grandmothers from Iran. Any whim ...

[Aleksandr12]

Not how the Americans will not calm down. They so want to bomb Iran that they can’t sleep anymore. Terrible insomnia suffers, miserable. And the agreement on the Iranian atom does not cancel their desire, and the S-300 will not stop them ... and if the Lord God himself settles in Iranian nuclear facilities this will not affect the desire to bomb. This is a serious illness.

[Mountain shooter]

It is costly to create a powerful and insurmountable air defense system, the mere existence of which prevents an air attack. I suspect that the Iranian leaders will not keep up with the price, so it becomes clear that our leadership is calm about Iranian oil and the lifting of sanctions in general. Oil will be available when there is still, and Iran will start buying the complexes today. And, I suppose, they will buy a lot, as well as "Shell" and "Thors". And there is the air defense aviation.
Yes, with the threat of loss, even 10% of the star-striped planes themselves will not fly anywhere, and they will not force allies.

[Fan-fan]

And why everyone is talking about protection, in my opinion, Iran needs to prepare an answer to the aggressors on their territory. Only Amer’s territory they can’t get. That would be why they slip a couple of submarines with the Kyrgyz Republic, maybe they can sail 250 miles to New York?

[brisk]

Quote: Fan-Fan

That would be why they slip a couple of submarines with the Kyrgyz Republic, they can be able to swim to New York for 250 kilometers

Why then not an ICBM ground? It will be cheaper than submarines. The Iranians themselves are able to do ICBMs. Or maybe they already have it. Persians though, Aryans mean. Not dumber than Koreans. First you need to conduct demonstration launches in the oceans. The United States will both see it and a little crap one's pants. And they want to bully with their cruise missiles and stealth bombers.

Five six planes lost in the sky of Iran will sharply drop a degree of military intoxication.

[padded jacket]

Yes, unfortunately, the "umbrella" of Iran's air defense in the far zone is extremely weak and is represented only by the S-200 complexes, but in its medium-range air defense systems, it is quite numerous and quite modern. Unfortunately, there are now quite a lot of airborne weapons with a range that does not require the carrier (aircraft) to enter the affected area of ​​the air defense missile system.
Therefore, Iran urgently needs a long-range air defense system, otherwise the last stronghold of the fight against terrorists and maniacs in the BV may be destroyed by the United States or "damaged" by a terrorist friend of the Israeli regime.

Therefore, I say again: Iran needs to create an air defense system.

Or do some think that a complex of 2-3 divisions will become a superweapon in Iran’s hands ?. Here, many talked about the number of air defense systems. Now bring it all over Iran. Separate from there junk and air defense systems of near radius, such as Hawk and its derivatives. And what will remain in the dry residue?
