Iranian Minister of Defense, Brigadier Amir Hatimi, reiterated today that his country is not subject to sanctions in the field of arms exports and imports, noting that what is being proposed otherwise is an American hoax.
During the Iranian Air Force delivery ceremony of three new Kawthar fighters from the Ministry of Defense, Hatami said “the manufacture of this type of aircraft is an indication of reaching an advanced level of development. Also during this year, there are surprises in the missile field and in the marine and air industries as well.” Hatami expressed the United States’ anxiety about the Iranian arms exports.
Hatami pointed out that the enemies ’allegations of creating peace and security in the region are a big lie, adding “our message to our friends is that we need stability and security while our message to the enemy is that we’re forcefully ready for any attack”
For his part, the Chairman of the Defense Industries Organization stated that what was accomplished in this air technology of fighters was entirely homemade, adding “we reached this level in the air force with the same capabilities that we have achieved with our marine force.”
This aircraft has a sophisticated and integrated engineering systemthat enables it to deal with hostile fire by using a digital and military data network identical to the fourth generation and ballistic weapon calculations. It also has a sophisticated correction system in addition to an advanced multi-purpose radar to control hostile fire and raise the level of accuracy by detecting targets and threats in addition to providing a navigation accurate system as well as a smart map.
