Iran's Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) has displayed the country’s latest domestically-manufactured air defense system.

A military truck carries an Iranian medium-range Sejil missile during the parade of the Iranian Armed Forces in the capital city, Tehran, on September 21, 2012.
Raad air defense system was displayed during the Friday parade of the Iranian Armed Forces in the capital city, Tehran, marking the 32nd anniversary of eight years of defense against Iraq's invasion of the country under executed Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein
The mid-range system which is equipped with Taer 2 missiles is capable of intercepting targets at a range of up to 50 kilometers and at the height of 75,000 feet.
Raad is the optimized version of the Russian-made Buk surface-to-air missile system.
The Friday parade also showcased the latest achievements of Iran’s Armed Forces in defense and military hardware.
In recent years, Iran has made great achievements in the defense sector and gained self-sufficiency in essential military hardware and defense systems.
Iran has repeatedly stated that its military might poses no threat to other countries, reiterating that its defense doctrine is based on deterrence.

I'm sure the defence of the Iran is not a question about religion. It's more a question about the threat from other countries like the USA.

That pic is not an air defense missile. That is a ballistic missile. Way way to big for surface to air system.

Iran hasn't attacked any country since 1798. It builds defensive weapons and people get pissed at them. The fact is a SAM that only goes 50 km is purely defensive.

I wonder when are they going to develop a way to feed all of their starving citizens. If the Iranian people would get hungry and annoyed enough, the Iranian government will not have to worry about Israel being the end of them.

This is 1970s Soviet technology, with semi-active radar homing these missile rely on a ground radar for guidance signal for the target illumination. Thus become vulnerable to jamming or HARM missiles that lock on the ground station RF signal and destroy them.
In reality the AA systems that rely on active radar illumination are basically obsolete. The first time it is used will likely be the last as the location of the radar will be exposed and the site would be destroyed shortly with a cruise m More..

Shhh. You're ruining his propaganda.
With a name like "Muslim_Soldier" and a string of laughable PressTV stories uploaded in a row - you know it's just some 14 year old kid who got his first internet connection.
