The intention of Iran to acquire high tech Russian weaponry, including S-400 air defense systems, Su-35 and Su-57 fighters, and probably other Russian missile weapons, is being reported by EDNews.net, citing sources within the Bulgarian Military.

Information on this matter was confirmed by the Ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Iran in Moscow Kazem Jalali.

“Of course it is. We will consult with Russia on what we need to strengthen our defense capabilities. The Russian government and the Russian people have been and remain on our side in difficult times. Russia is also a priority partner for us. There are great opportunities in this area, and we hope that over time our relations in this area will strengthen,” the Arab edition of Al-Masdar News quotes him.

Despite the fact that the Iranian ambassador did not indicate the types of weapons purchased from Russia, experts believe that primarily Iran will choose air defense systems, as well as the latest fighters of the Russian military industry.

“Iran needs powerful and reliable air defense systems, and it is obvious that the only choice of this country will fall on the Russian S-400s. As for military aviation, Iran may be interested in buying Su-35 and Su-57 fighters, and given the partnership between our country and Iran, it is obvious that Iran will be given a special price,” a Russian analyst said.
