Iran's Defense Minister Ahmad Vahidi said that the country will soon unveil new radars, Fars news agency reported.

The radars are of 1,000 to 3,000 km range.

Vahidi said that Iran currently produces radars within 500 to 700 km range, adding that some other radar models for discovering the satellites are under construction.

In recent years, Iran has made great achievements in its defense sector and attained self-sufficiency in producing essential military equipment and systems.

Tehran has repeatedly assured other countries that its military might poses no threat to other states, insisting that the Islamic Republic's defense doctrine is entirely based on deterrence.
