S-400 capable of intercepting in bound cruise missiles. Russia has S-400 anti-missile systems deployed in Syria and they would be used to intercept incoming missiles.
Russia has offered Iran ‘unprecedented defense cooperation, including in the field of missiles, electronics and air defense’
Iran is seeking sophisticated new air defense systems from Russia that Israeli officials say would reduce the window of a potential attack on Tehran’s nuclear program, media reported Thursday, citing people familiar with the issue.
Israeli and American sources told Bloomberg News that the prospect of Tehran obtaining these S-400 systems would speed up the decision on a possible attack on Iranian nuclear sites. Russia has not said publicly whether it will supply the weapons, but Moscow and Tehran have grown closer since the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
It would then take less than two years for the S-400s delivered to Iran to be operational.

This Russian air defense system, which can hit air targets at a distance of up to 155 miles, would create a “red zone for high-altitude aircraft,” according to experts.
“The more air defenses they have, the harder it is to hit them,” said Yossi Kuperwasser, a former senior Israeli military intelligence official, adding: “We are analyzing the most opportune time to take action.”
Analysts also suggest that an open military conflict with Iran could trigger an unprecedented regional confrontation and affect the world’s oil supply. Russia has offered Iran “unprecedented defense cooperation, including in the field of missiles, electronics, and air defense” and may supply Tehran with fighter jets, U.S. National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said last week.
Iran’s nuclear efforts have been a growing concern since international observers detected 84 percent enriched uranium there, just below the 90 percent needed to make a nuclear bomb.

“Israel fears” …this is good news.
I hope they do. Iran has every right to defend themselves against Israel and their nukes, especially with Nuttyahoo back on office.
“ISRAEL FEARS” that the truth about anything at all will reach the public
Forget about S-400s…
here’s hoping Russia supplies Iran with a few Sarmats!!! 🙂
Israel wants to be able to commit illegal Acts of War on neighboring communities with impunity.
Geee…What a shame were Iran to get the 400’s. How DARE they protect their sovereign – not stolen or bequeathed – soil.
As Iran is a target of the evil Israeli state, which is partnered with the equally malevolent US, it makes sense for them to have Russian defence technology. It would be little surprise if the Israeli baby-killers attacked Iran unawares, were repelled and beaten back by anti-aircraft missiles, after which the dogs flee for home with their tail between their legs and they’re very reluctant to try a sneak attack again.
Of course, an Israeli attack all depends on their having innocent civilian aircraft behind which to hide their approach. No innocent civilian aircraft, no murderous Israeli attack.
Iran needs to get nukes for the same reason North Korea has nukes – to stop obliteration by ZOG. Look at what ZOG did to Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Libya, and now Ukraine.
Iran needs ballistic missiles with nukes aimed at Netanyahus house. Iran then tells Satan, if you attack us one more time we will fry every Jew in Israel.
Then the Jew cry baby will yell, Oh Vey, vee can not destroy Iran, our god has abandoned us!
When ww3 proper finally begins, the poor little jews will be blown to pieces by a dozen different countries, so I don’t think it really matters if you add bigger bombs to one of them.
I wish I had a bomb that I could launch at “parliament”. Oh, and another to launch at the “county council”. Oh, and another to launch at the “parish council”. And then a nice big knife to use on any scum that come knocking at the door.
israhell is only able to nuke defenceless
Gaza, Berlin, Beirut port !
Why does Israel FEAR a defensive ground to air missile?
The S-400 is a defensive missile, when fired it stays in Iranian airspace, it is not designed to hit ground targets, so why in hell would Israel fear this missile?

THE ONLY REASON ISRAEL WOULD FEAR A DEFENSIVE MISSILE IS THAT THEY ARE PLANNING ON INVADING AND STRIKING IRAN
ISRAELI FEAR IS BASED ON PRE-PLANNED AGGRESSION ON INNOCENT NATIONS
ISRAELI PHILOSOPHY IS BASED ON INITIATING THE USE OF FORCE
ISRAEL IS AN EXISTENTIAL THREAT TO ALL PEACE LOVING NATIONS

Iran has announced the discovery of its first lithium ore deposit amid extensive exploration activity in the country’s metals and mining sector.
A senior official in the Iranian Ministry of Industry, Mine and Trade (MIMT) said on Monday that the deposit located in the western province of Hamedan contains some 8.5 million metric tons of lithium ore.

I’m pretty sure Iran already has nukes and they are keeping it under their hat. They could have got the nukes/technology from North Korea or Pakistan assuming they would even need it. They have competent nuclear technicians. They are biding their time, and if Israel is foolish enough to attack that’s when the jews will find out. Israel is a small country, not too hard to wipe out. Then Hezbollah will help with the cleaning up.
Hail Iran, f.ck Jews up. Tod Dem Juden…
Iran should strike Dimona, because Israel is building nukes there.

The Zionist government of Amerika manipulated Iraq into attacking Iran
https://www.history.com/topics/middle-east/iran-iraq-war
Israel blew up the Osirak reactor based on lies:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Opera
Then Israel blew up Iraq based on 911 false flag.
Thus Iran should take Israeli threats seriously and level every military base in Israel as an existential threat to Iran, build many missiles, then when Israel attacks, level every military based, government structure so that Israel is completely wiped off the map. Then Hezbollah can go door to door and finish off any surviving Jews.
Well… when you consider that the ‘jew’ and it’s golem already regularly attack these so called ‘nuclear sites’…(every target is a ‘nuclear site’ for propaganda purposes)…
Buying up a bit of Russkie heavy weaponry for ‘defence’..and of course to prevent your existential enemies from regularly bombing your ‘nuclear sites’..
and instead.. blasting them out of the skies before they have a chance to..
seems quite sensible.. and l should imagine would be quite satisfying too..
So…roubles well spent…
Pay no attention to the fact Syria has had both S-300 and S-400 systems for years yet Israel somehow manages to strike both of Syria’s major ports and weapons storage/transfer sites of Tartus and Latakia. Any guesses how they manage this?
