The American press reports that Russia will soon receive Iranian ballistic missiles

October 16 2022

Some time ago in the American, European, Ukrainian and Iranian press started talking about the possible appearance of ballistic missiles from Iran in Russian arsenal. The Washington Post from the United States began another discussion of this topic, reporting that Moscow would soon receive long-range ammunition from Tehran, citing sources in the Pentagon.

According to the newspaper, the Islamic Republic of Iran agreed to sell surface-to-surface missiles to the Russian Federation. We are talking about short-range ballistic missiles Fateh-110 (b / h weight 448 kg) and Zolfaghar (b / h weight 579 kg), capable of hitting targets at a distance of 300 and 700 km, respectively. At present, the Iranians allegedly have already started manufacturing the first batch of missiles and are preparing to start deliveries of these military products to the Russian army.

Sources in the US Department of Defense told the publication that the final agreement on this was reached on September 18, when the Iranians flew to Moscow to sign an agreement on additional arms sales. However, there is no official confirmation of this information yet. However, there was also no complete clarity about the Shahed-136 kamikaze UAVs (loitering ammunition) and Mohajer-6 drones, until they appeared in the Russian military zone in Ukraine.

Now, after being tested on the battlefield, Iran is going to transfer modified Mujaher-6 and Shahed-136 to Russia in even more numbers. The interlocutors are confident that large-scale deliveries of drones and missiles will help Russia compensate for the depletion of its stocks, which has been observed for 7,5 months, which has accelerated sharply in recent days.

Well, since such a compote has gone that Iranian missiles can become a cheaper replacement / addition to Russian ones, is it not more correct to acquire a license to produce these missiles at home, in a full cycle?

Dill now serves as a military training ground for the exercises of our troops, using our and foreign weapons and special equipment. Therefore, friendly countries also want to test their weapons. We should call the North Koreans too. That's just the problem with our soldiers with uniforms, especially the newly mobilized. For this, the supreme must severely ask those responsible for this.

you have to buy if there is not enough production capacity of the military-industrial complex (the result of reforms according to Western tracing paper), Iranian missiles showed phenomenal accuracy in Syria - the hangars of Yankee bases were destroyed, at a very large distance (up to 1-2 thousand km). so it must be admitted that even the Iranians overtook the Russian military-industrial complex in terms of the range of tactical missiles, but we must not forget that the Russian military-industrial complex had its hands tied by the INF Treaty. how effective Iranian missiles are against Buk and NATO small air defense systems is not yet clear. in any case, for each ammunition depot, air defense is not enough

Wake up.
There are no "bad boyars".
The boyars are exactly the same as those appointed by the Tsar.
Following the results of 20 years of the rule of which we buy weapons from Iran.
And we put into operation tanks discontinued in 1975.

I approve the use of weapons of other countries in the war against NATO, under what conditions, we will never know, no one will publish the contract, shahid mopeds helped us7 and I hope the rest of the weapons of Iran, the DPRK, not advertised help from China, etc. will help
in addition, I hope that our gunsmiths will draw conclusions, determine the best aspects of weapons and apply ideas already to their similar weapons, war is the best training ground

If they urgently buy, then these missiles are available, such a deal is mutually beneficial. These missiles should be cheaper, since the cost of disposal, which will be handled by the buyer, that is, us, is deducted from the total cost. Well, the saturation of joint R&D.
PS If only Shoigu did not forget to invite the Iranians to the tank biathlon. ))))))

It is a mistake to consider Iran backward. Quite on the level. Even at the ovs "marinas" cry from them. And the special forces of their fleet are even better than ours, judging by the past Games in the Caspian Sea.

And volleys of thousands of batteries
For the tears of our mothers
For our Motherland, fire, fire ....

This is the case when you can’t spoil porridge with butter. Let's add a few hundred Iranians to our several hundred. Or is pride gone? Our Calibers - in the Western regions - the radii are good there, in average distances - Iskanders, and in the near ones - Iranian ones are better suited. Belarusians also have Polonaise. I think they are cheaper than long-range ones. Here, we will treat the yellow blakitniks with a roll.
But the most important thing is not missiles. The most important thing is to get Iran on your side. The Persians have been at enmity with the Turks for thousands of years. The richest country in oil. A counterbalance to various Erdogans there. And missiles, SU-35, S-400 are just tools for putting together a coalition (not a union, but) ....
