kuwait was the main financier of saddam's war against iran, but saddam miscalculated. kuwait was not like iran for the united states and the west to remain silent in the face of attack on kuwait. the us president immediately reacted. uh, united states and its coalition allies are committed to enforcing the united nations resolutions that call for saddam hussein to immediately and unconditionally leave kuwait. in view of the

soviet initiative, which very frankly we appreciate, we want to set forth this morning the specific criteria that will ensure saddam hussein complies with the united nations mandate. these were the moments when a limited war broke out between the us and iraq over kuwait, which ultimately led to complete sanctions on iraq. to the extent that saddam was forced to destroy all his missiles and declare the location of all his defense facilities to the west. saddam implemented all the tasks that the international atomic energy agency, the iae dictated to him and didn't even know that the new us president was going to attack him without getting a un approval. involve saddam hussein. this president is the son of the president

attacked iraq in the past, the american people, and we got to deal with, we got to deal with him before it is. now saddam is here and is walking among these children without even knowing that they have plans for him out there. the americans brought this special fight. jet to their secret base in saudi arabia, as these aircraft take off, saddam's days are numbered, but saddam does not know anything about the us f-117s. he is with the nomads who support him, so they feast in front of him. saddam was seriously harmed in the previous war with bush senor.

welcome, but he still relies on his defense systems. no electronic warfare system could fail the systems during the war between egypt and israel. even iran's american phantoms could not easily escape from the grip of this air defense. however, the us winning card was secretly in test flights in the american secret bases in saudi arabia and saddam was totally unaware of it. a sort of radar evading fighter jets that were supposed to break records. russian and iraqy mid-range air defense systems stood no chance against these bombers. it seemed the saddam would

soon be done away with. f-117s, this black shadow will take its first serious test here in iraq's mesopotamia. finally, the anticipated night arrived. the at 17's departed from saudi arabia at 2200. sadam. is here, he's giving a speech to senior members of the iraqi bath party, in order to disturb the thinking of the iraki defense commanders, american warships started firing missiles at baghdad from the persian gulf. iraq did not have a proper defense to destroy the missiles. the americans launched more than 700 fighters and bombers after the... took

off, the largest air raid since the end of the world war ii began. if the f-117 succeed, the bombing will finish off iraq, but if they fail, the iraqi defense systems will inflict the biggest defeat on the us in its history. the americans are still not confident that they will achieve victory, so they send their apache helicopters to shoot at iraqi defenses at the border. "everyone is supposed to divert attention of the iraqi commanders so that the f-117s can strike all the defense systems. suddenly the sky of iraq turns red.

the anti-aircraft batteries are heavily at work, but no rockets are still being fired. the shadow..." is not detected yet and the shots are blindly fired. the f-117 opens its belly and the bombs are dropped on the defense systems. that's all. it's acu dagras. the attack by 700 bombers begins. "the rocky radar system used the method of sending radar waves towards the aircraft, which would then bounce back and identify the type of flying object, but the f-117's fuselage is made of radar absorbing materials known as ram. these

waves ensured that the f-117 was never detected and could easily attack its targets. saddam may have been thinking about it when he was being held captive. by the american soldiers, why wasn't a single missile fired from its defenses towards the american aircraft. iraq easily falls and many countries around the world are watching the fall. one of these countries is iraq's neighboring country to the east, iran. the people of iran were as disgusted with saddam as the people of iraq. saddam's fall did not upset them, but will cause. concern was america's decisive success in the battle against saddam. iran had to learn lessons from this battle in order to stand against the us. after america's first attack on iraq

in 1990, iran realized that if another battle were to occur in the region of west asia, it would not be a battle between two neighbors. the era of proxy wars has ended and this time the superpower itself will attack the countries. the fall of afghanistan and iraq is evidence of this situation. these days, american tv channels broadcast these images very often. america's show of force and occupying any country it wants, especially this type of promotional images. these are symbols of the 1,000 cruise missiles that the us launched into iraq. iraq is not a vast

country. if 1,00 cruise missiles escaped from iraq's radar systems and hit the targets, why can't iran be invaded by the same method? to hit a cruise missile, special radar systems are needed at low and very high altitudes. these air defense batteries are

also the first step in the fight against cruise missiles. the sky must be turned into a fire before rockets are targeted. only after having the radar to detect this terrible shadow, it is necessary for a missile to reach this height and hit the black monster, that's right before the hatch of its bomb opens and the monster falls on the people on earth. these bombers take off in the us and hit their targets in other continents. phantom fighters, the symbol of the us power, a massive aircraft behind which all arrogant and colonial power of the us is entrenched. the us has returned to the era before the 20th century, to the days when the... themselves invaded directly other countries. iran is the only independent

country in the world among the countries that america has declared enmity against. it was not affiliated with the former soviet union, nor is it willing to surrender. breaking iran can serve as an important lesson for the world. iran's defense industry experts have a big. concern, are they able to quickly protect the country against such air rates? these systems and machines are all manufactured and produced either by the us or uk. the range of their missiles is very limited and the radars are hard to repair, but for now all of iran's defense capacity is restricted to such facilities, and the country has to advance. its scientific potentials as well, the rapier and hawk

systems. rapier is a british short-range surface to air missile launcher, and hawk was an american medium range surface to air missile system. iran had purchased them before the revolution. the missiles barely reached the required range to hit iraqi fighter jets. during the war, now these are iran's only tools to fend off a possible attack by countries like the us. of course, iran had also bought a type of air defense system from the country where this man's pictures were painted its walls from libya. during a symbolic parade, the systems are loaded for delivery to iran, but they were not made by libya. the... soviets had built them and named them sam 2 and sold them to libya. however, after sam 2 was imported to

iran, it immediately stopped working after libya's support was terminated. gaddafi had decided to join the club of saddam supporters. now, iran must have launched and... repair the systems by itself. thus, iran was coers to reverse engineer foreign radars and build the first national radar at home. in 1983, the us invaded iraq, and iran must quickly acquire the systems that will put the entire country under dome of protective waves. iran is going to buy the

sam 5 from russia. russia's s-200 or sam 5 eventually joins the iranian army. یه طراحی داشته باشیم ببینیم چیکار میشه کرد. به این فکر رسیدن که ما با استفاده از یک هواپیمای شکاری خودی این سیستم رو روش روی هواپیما قفل بکنیم و در حالت دور شوند. روی این موشک پرتاب بکنیم بعد از یک دقیقه تعقیب هدف موشک رو رو هوا منفجر یعنی اسفلش بکنیم از داخل چون این قابلیت رو داره که رو هوا می تونیم موشک رو از داخل از سایت زمینی کابین زمینه منفجر کنیم حالا کی جرأت داشت که با این شرایط روی یک هواپیمای خودی موشک پرتاب بکنه اون التهاب اضطرابی که در اون لحظاتی که همه کار رو انجام دادیم قفل انجام شده میخوایم. شک رو بر علیه یک هواپیمای خودی پرتاب بکنیم پروفایل این کشیده شد روی یک برد کشیده شد بارها پاک شد تنظیم شد از کدام

زاویه بیاد چه زاویه ای بیاد چون باید منطقه رو ما کلیار می کردیم که هواپیمایی در منطقه حضور نداشته باشه برای اون لحظاتی که ما میخوایم این عملیات رو انجام بدیم این گفت اون نفر بشینه این گفت اون نفر بشینه بالاخره همه به این نتیجه رسیدن که این افتخار نصیب بنده شد یک روز بنا شد که هواپیما بیاد ما آزمایشی قفل بکنیم و روز. بعد بیاد که موشک رو پرتاب بکنیم خداوند کمک کرد در روز اول ما هواپیما اومد خیلی راحت روش قفل کردیم از مسیری که انجام شده بود پروفایلی شده بود چه دور شونده چه نزدیک. شما اومد رفت و منتظر روز بعد شدیم روز اصلی دیگه ما چون مهمان دعوت داشتیم از فرمانده کل ارتش اومده بودن ساعت حدوداً فکر کنم ۹ ۱ ۹ ما آماده شدیم برای این کار و هواپیما یواش یواش وارد منطقه شد کاتیری موشک آماده قفل هواپیما همه چی زیبا خیلی واقعاً میشه گفتش که واقعاً خدا کمک

کرد نگاه کردم دیدم که دانچر شماره دو به من آماده باش داده شد همه چی آماده بود. و به یاری خداوند من یک الله اکبر بلندی گفتم و موشک رو پرتاب کردم و موشک به راحتی پرتاب شد ما مسیر موشک رو روی سیستم داریم منتظر شدیم دقیقاً تایم گرفتیم سر یک دقیقه من موشک رو اسپلش کردم و هواپیما زد روی ای بی افتر برلینگ اونجا افتر برلینگ اونجا آماده شد که بزنه و با سرعت افتر برنین از منطقه دور شد. defense industry for study. research on the concept of radar had been started for a long time and continued. men and women came to work on the plan from all universities in the country. for the first time in its history, iran wants to

completely entrust its military needs to young students. the mersad air system is the result of the trust. mersad means ambush. the iranian ambush is an example of the reverse engineering of the american hawk. the first step to conquer the sky step by step. this is 2010, the mers launched their

missiles one after the other. missiles are called shahin and are domestically produced by iran. the missile control room is also domestically produced. this is an important secret. this room is the big secret of iranians. without having information about it, it's impossible for the end. me easily disable it.

in today's world, if the defense systems are not. the mersad missiles were quickly updated, mersad one, two and three, the mersad air defense system consisted of three main components, missile and launcher, detection

radar, and engagement radar, all of which in the initial versions were reverse engineered from the american... hawk air defense system, this system is of medium range and its operational range has been calculated to be up to 40 km, but it's not meant to stop there. the shahin missile quickly turns into shalamche with a speed of about four times the speed of sound. shalamche can hit any target at altitude of 18 kms. this means iran is gradually approaching the highest altitude. the firing of shalamch from the mersad systems leads the then defense minister to.

stome has many needs that cannot be met by the shalam chis system alone, it requires special radars that can withstand the electronic warfare of the major powers, perhaps something on the level of american air defense systems, but this is a big claim: american fighter jets fly at high altitudes and they cannot be detected with ordinary radars. will iran build its own defense dome?

ما در دفاع از هوا به گونه ای عمل خواهیم کرد که تهدیدات بالقوه که در اینجا وجود دارد به بلفل تبدیل نشود. یک عملیات ترکیب جنگ افزارها را انجام دادیم به گونه ای که نذاریم این تهدیدات بقوه به بالفعل تبدیل بشه. in the 2010s the country enters. new era in which the turmoil of sanctions will reach its speak and it's the economic issues that will attract more attention than the military

ones. in 2013, the united nations security council imposed sanctions on iran based a proposal by the us and its western allies. one of the branches of the embargo is the purchase of weapons. it means iran will soon face an important challenge regarding one of its purchases, the s300. glory stance prestine nature with vast oak
