Translation for the folks;
Russian Sukhoi-35 fighters 🇷🇺 will come to Iran 🇮🇷 early next year!

- Shahriar Heydari, a member of the National Security and Foreign Policy Committee of the Parliament, in a conversation with Tasnim news agency, said: Sukhoi-35 fighter jets, which Iran ordered from Russia, will arrive in the country early next year.

Heydari also said that we have given orders to Russia for air defense systems, missiles and helicopters, and most of these weapons will enter the country soon.


Sidenote: it explicitly says missiles although its possible they meant missile defence. Iranian news media are often very poor in military verbage.

Another possibility for the "missiles" would be supersonic cruise missiles like the yakhont or moskit,as this is a class that iran has no direct indigenous equivalent of.There were unsubstantiated claims of iran operating the moskit,tho I suspect that if that were in fact true we certainly would`ve seen evidence of it by now as I honestly couldnt see iran keeping that capability a secret,for obvious reasons.

Actually he did say ‘missile systems’ with ‘system’ as aggregator. In this case the verbiage in the report is correct. I can’t attest to whether the report itself is correct or not.

Tasmin news agency :Iran to Receive Russian Sukhoi Su-35 Jets in Spring
https://www.tasnimnews.com/en/news/...eceive-russian-sukhoi-su-35-jets-in-spring-mp

“The lawmaker noted that Iran has also ordered a series of other military equipment from Russia, including air defense systems, missile systems and helicopters, most of which will be received soon.”

Hopefully they ordered S-500 and not S-400. S-400 doesn’t add much capability over Iranian systems, but S-500 is a good platform to learn from for ABM/hypersonic development
