Iranian air defense commanders repeatedly announced their new Iranian systems has all S-300 offers plus additional capabilities... why should I reject them? Let aside current projects (maybe already in service!) of ultra lang range and space defense systems I,m aware of... but won't be existing until there is a public proof of course..which due to its strategic nature, I suspect it happen unless there is war...
Come on.
have n,t you heard in news how Iran has modified and changed S-200 electronics and algorithms and codes already? Iran is building many Medium to Lang Range AA systems by its own..so why not? one who can build a seperate design, can easily modify imported ones as Iran did...
Which general?
I don't remember... it was somewhere in Wikipedia... I found a Persian version mentions it..

You are correct in no.1, no.2, no.4.
5. Is totally wrong. There isn't much Iran can do.
google it... It is said that Russia will lose the case easily and have to pay
The Iranian envoy's remarks came after Russian Technologies (Rostech) CEO Sergei Chemezov said on May 30 that Moscow seeks to reach a settlement with Tehran to withdraw its lawsuit against Russia's state-run arms export company Rosoboronexport over the canceled deal as Russia's chances "to win the case are very slim".
Russia Seeks Amicable Settlement in Iran S-300 Lawsuit
3. There is not much Iran can offer to Russia economy wise, you have to remember that Russia itself is a Fuel Giant. And Iran's 90% exports are fuel based products.
It is not about what Iran exports to Russia but more about Russia exports stuff to Iran... although, Russia is need of many Iranian products as already started to export by Iran... From fruit, fish, processed food, up to the cars.... but as I said, Russia can export stuff to Iran and invest in Iran... secondly, Iran last year exported 51 billion dollars worth of non-oil products,... $20 billion was Petrochemical products and the rest was mostly medium and high tech stuff...
The MAJOR reason for the S-300 sale is to open a doorway to Iran for further sales. You have to remember Iran has been in sanctions for 30 years. Most of their equipment is very outdated. Iran will soon be buying Fighters, Frigates, Tanks and what not. And the competition will be between Russia and China only, since I don't think any European power will sell anything useful to Iran...
If the sanctions are lifted then the whole world can sell weapons but you,re mostly right about this... Russia needs to start showing they like to export weapons to Iran as China will grab the opportunity in a blink of eye if Russia does not move now... Iran mostly need new gen fighters and navy frigates and subs as reaching serious numbers of them being built by Iran locally takes long years so Iran would prefer to import a part of its needs.. Stuff like MBTs, Radars or ground forces equipment is something Iran prefer to build locally...
S-300 is a very dangerous and advanced system. They haven't gotten access to an S-300 so far so I doubt they have capable EW suite against S-300. They are right to be worried, but I don't think they can prevent Iran from acquiring S-300.
S-300 is just the beginning, once the sanctions are lifted, i see Iran acquiring a lot of Russian or maybe Chinese systems.
Agreed
If S-300 was not a serious threat the west and ISrael won,t jump up and down to neutralize this deal with Iran and Syria...
Waiting for Iranian comments.
I guess Iranian members decided not to engage in time-wasting trolling battles... please give us some secret info about Turkish or American stuff or ..... ok, I,m going to bed.. I have technologies to develop... inventions to invent... achievements to achieve tomorrow...

Turkey is investing hundreds of million $ to develop state of art electronic support/attack systems and delivering complete solutions to Turkish army. There are already proceeding projects to develop Aerial Stand off Attacking plane called Air-SOJ) and Land based stand off electronic attack systems (Land SOJ-completed) as well.
In additions, Turkish AirForce have a training center called EHTES(Electronic Warfare Test and Training Range). EHTES provides an instrumented environment for both testing of onboard EW equipment and for training the pilots in a near-real threat environment for employing tactics and maneuvers. To simulate real threat environments, Turkey ordered various type of Russian SAM systems from Tor-M1 to Buk-M, S-300 radar to simulate electronically attack/survive scenarioes from a likely missile launch (electronically simulated launches that fighter sensors feel as real) to be issued by them. This system is exported to Pakistan and S. Korea as well and threat bank is enlarged thanks to those countries SAM threat perceptions.
The gold question is, Turkish electronic attack systems are able to defeat Iranian missiles ? If It is S-300 PMU-1, even PMU-2(Azerbaijan), yes easily but Iranian upgraded one?. We don't know. The system itself works with emmiting the radar signals at first phase and immediately generates a counter attack codes/scenarioes/plans for jamming the target seeker head. The ED/ET system may jam enemy missile/fighters with identifying own coordinate dataes at different position or generates various similar radar echoes to direct the missile routes towards an empty sky or radar seeker head can be completely blocked or missile inertial measurement unit can be broken down...etc
but Firstly, We should receive some of your radar signals (Missile seeker radar/fighter AESA radar/Land based long range radar) firstly. That's why our AirForce sometimes violates the foreign air spaces to receive something usefull... We are familiar with Greek systems but don't know about yours.
Greek Tor-M1's were locked Turkish fighters over Aegean in past. If the fighters were sent over Greek islands to receive some radar signals, Then I can say that Greeks did the worst thing.
Iran already announced that they already modified and will modify and change the electronic, codes and algorithms of all existing imported systems and logically, they will do the same with S-300 whatever the version would be... Iran already did this job with S-200 in a way that it can be called a huge upgrade if not a totally new system... they changed the electronic to modern solid state, changed algorithms, added the capability to intercept cruise and ballistics (If I remember correctly) and integrated new Iranian solid fuel missiles into its radars and fire control system to get rid of its old standard missiles...
but in real war... only results can determine which system works and which one fails...
