Iran unveiled its new “Bavar 373” on Sunday after Iranian aerospace engineers spent several months developing this air defense system.

The Bavar 373 was developed by local engineers in Iran and possesses long-range capabilities, according to the Tasnim News Agency.

The Iranian president, Hassan Rouhani, and his Minister of Defense, Brigadier General Hussein Dehqan, toured the facility where the Bavar 373 was produced and even posed for several pictures with the new air defense system.

“The president was also briefed on different stages of manufacturing Iran’s ‘national turbojet engine’, and visited other units displaying achievements in the production of fighter and cargo jets, helicopters and drones,” Tasnim Agency added.

Iran has reportedly assured its neighbors that this air defense system is merely for deterrence purposes and does not pose a threat to the region.
