TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iranian Air Defense units managed to intercept and destroy a projectile mirroring the features of a hostile bunker buster with a homegrown missile system in the course of a military drill near a nuclear site in central Iran.
The air defense forces from the Army and the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) started a joint war game on Tuesday.
During the first stage of the drill, the air defense units exercised plans for the protection of the Natanz nuclear site in Iran’s central province of Isfahan.
The air defense division of the IRGC Aerospace Force employed point-defense tactics to protect the nuclear site in Natanz by engaging with 30 aerial targets in the exercise.
The short-range air defense systems, such as Dezful and Tor-M1, could detonate drones and cruise missiles at low altitudes.
Afterwards, the Iranian forces activated Dey-9 air defense missile system to practice intercepting a bunker buster dropped from a warplane.
The homegrown air defense system could track, intercept and destroy the bunker buster in less than 15 seconds at a distance of 17 kilometers away from the nuclear site.
The IRGC Aerospace Force has operated many other air defense systems to practice for electronic warfare.
On Monday, the commander of the Khatam al-Anbia Air Defense Base -the central headquarters of Iran’s Air Defense- said a series of new and secret air defense systems have been installed near the country’s sensitive locations.
