Talash-3 was only a development phase and a prototype, final system will only be called ''Talash air defense system".Hopefully soon sister. They have not yet officially unveiled Talash-3. Once they do, we will see testing of it etc.
Our enemies will get the message. The fact Iran has long range surface to air missile technology is enough to make them shiver.
There has been a new report by Tasnimnews which has interesting details on Talash AD system developments and its components.
According to the report 3 variants of Talash AD system was tested, these 3 variants lead the way to the final ''Talash Air defense system''
The four phases of this system are called Talash 1, Talash 2, Talash 3, Talash(the final and completely indigenous variant)
Talash 1 was the initial tested version of Talash, it used an older variant of Sayyad-2 missile and was tested against low and mid altitude targets successfully.
Talash 2 used an improved version of Sayyad-2 which had higher engagement altitude.
Talash 3 was Talash 2 synced with russian S-200 in order to have higher range.
In the final version they dropped the S-200 from Talash 3 and added the new Sayyad-3 missile to it, this last system which is the final and definite version is now called ''Talash Air defense system'', according to report it is completely indigenous and apparently this is the system that will be deployed and enter mass production.
The final Talash AD system is able to engage mid and long range targets.
The report didn't specified the Sayyad-2 and Sayyad-3 missile ranges, according to report the Talash is consisted of 5 components.(I use the exact Persian translation as I don't know the correct terminology)
1- Information sender
2- detection and engagement system
3- control and monitoring unit
4- launcher
5- Sayyad-2 and Sayyad-3 missiles
Each Talash air defense unit will be consisted of three launchers, two command and control vehicles and radars(the persian text isn't exact, it can either mean that it has one control and command vehicle and one radar or that it has two of each).
Also sayyad-3 launchers will have wider and longer canister in order to accommodate the missile.
