The next version of Iran's missile defense system ‘Bavar-373,’ said to be a clone of the Russian s-300, will be able to hunt ballistic targets.
The Iranian Army Air Defense Force’s deputy commander for coordination said plans have been devised to manufacture the second version of Bavar-373 air defense missile system.
A distinguishing feature of Bavar-373 is its vertical launching system with square launchers, mostly used for air defense on warships.
Bavar-373 uses a long-range, phased array fire-control radar, dubbed Me’raj-4.
The air defense system employs three different types of missiles to hit targets at various altitudes.
In November 2022, the Iranian Defense Ministry unveiled ‘Sayyad 4B’, a new solid-propellant missile paired with Bavar-373 air defense system with a range of 300 kilometers.
