UPDATE:

Iran hails transforming Russian S-200
Tue Jul 12, 2011 3:31PM

The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says Iran has managed to upgrade the Russian-made long-range S-200 air defense system into an entirely new apparatus.

IRGC Air Defense Commander Brigadier General Farzad Esmaili said Iran has introduced such wholesale enhancements into the system that it can be assigned a new name, Fars News Agency reported on Tuesday.

He said the system has been wholly optimized that its configuration totally differs from what the Russians had designed.

"Of course, the changes have also received the confirmation and commendation of the [Russian] manufacturers of the system," Esmaili said.

Fars News Agency reports the succesful upgrade of the originally Russian (Soviet) S-200 antaircraft SAM (SA-5 Gammon) by the Islamic Republic of Iran's defence industry.

The long-range surface-to-air missile is equipped with improved systems. The whole weapon is of domestic Iranian production.

The major powers will never manage to prevent Tehran from progressing in all areas of science, society, ecomony or politics.

@B525shot Who are the 2 countries world wide invading other countries/territories and bombing everything that moves, killing even Civilians? Simple: The USA and Israel. Since 1 April 1979(after the Iranian Revolution) Iran didn't invade, nor threatened any other country. I couldn't say the same thing about the USA and Israel. They had and have right now a lot of wars going on. Is this the simple math I was looking for?
