The commander noted that a boost to Iran’s air power with regard to possible threats posed against the Islamic Republic is underway.
Nasirzadeh’s remarks came after Iran successfully held the Great Prophet 6 military maneuvers in June.
During the drills, Iran unveiled underground missile silos, test fired Fateh (Conqueror)-110 missiles and launched 14 surface-to-surface missiles, including Zelzal (Temblor) and a range of Shahab missiles.
Iran says it holds various military drills to test its defensive capabilities, reiterating that the Islamic Republic poses no threat to other countries.
