Islamic Republic of Iran Armed Forces (Artesh) today held a spectacular parade in Tehran to mark the country’s National Armed Forces Day. The military exhibited its 1,800 km-range missile “Qadr 1” for the first time, and IRIAF fighter jets conducted a flyby over the parade grounds.

Iran military analyst Mark Pyruz described the activities as “a more serious parade for a more serious period in the country’s timeline.”

Uskowi on Iran will carry a detailed review by Pyruz of Iran’s military development as observed in today’s parade in a few days.
