'Iranian military can detect stealth aircraft'
Tehran Times Political Desk
TEHRAN - Iran has developed a technology that can detect radar-evading
aircraft, Brigadier General Farzad Ismaili said in Tehran on Monday.
"The Khatam-ol-Anbiya Air Base has the capability of detecting, identifying,
pursuing, and targeting any kind of stealth planes and any kind of cruise
missiles of the enemy," explained Ismaili, who is the commander of the air
base.
"It has been 32 years that we have been hearing the threats of the United
States and its allies, but we have not lost sight of these threats, and the
more we are threatened, the more vigilant we become, and the more sanctions are
imposed on us, the more progress (we) make," he noted.
Iran has manufactured highly advanced missile and radar systems and the country
has no problems in this regard, he added.
He went on to say that the U.S. always threatens nations that do not act in its
interests, but Iran has no enmity toward any country.
However, the Islamic Republic will respond to any country that seeks to take
aggressive action against it, he added.
In January, Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh announced that the Iranian
military forces had downed two foreign spy planes over the Persian Gulf.
He also stated, "We have constant clashes with the enemy's surveillance and
reconnaissance aircraft
