With the 3rd of Khordad systems my worry has always been on the Missiles of the system and not the system it's self and it seems Iran's continuous upgrading of the missiles have so far payed off & that's a path Iran needs to continue down on! And no doubt being able to hit a moving low RCS target at +50,000 feet using a "highly mobile" domestically produced Air Defense system is impressive and it sends a clear message because these are systems whos radars (PESA radar on the launch platform) don't necessarily need to stay on for any more than a few minutes and can quickly pack up and move so targeting them will not be so easy. And Iran is only just getting started on SAM systems so just imagine what we will achieve in the next decade or two.
IRGC as always did a great job at defending our Air Space and making it known that there are redlines that Iran will not allow anyone to cross and that goes for everyone even the world most powerful superpower! And that Iranian built Air Defense Systems are more than capable of going up against U.S. low RCS aircraft just incase the Americans had any doubts that it could.
And if our guys put a little effort on design, and our government puts a little funding toward mass producing components like processor, solid state hard drives & memory storage,.... Iran could become a major weapon exporter in various high tech fields. From SAM systems, Helicopters, Frigates, UAV's, UGV, Communication, IT & Cyber security, PGM, ISW,...
Why trust anything the Americans say? Clearly it's in their interest to claim that this was a low end early versions of the Global Hawk that was flying lower than usual & that's why Iranians were able to hit it with their SAM's....
These are people that sold a decade long areal bombing campaign against Iraq to their own people and the world as a Humanitarian No Fly Zone! Why trust anything they say?
