Tehran Times:

Second Brigadier General Abolfazl Sepehri-Rad on Sunday said the S-300 system is currently in service in Iran, fully integrated into Iran’s air defense network.

The air defense missile system has been stationed in temporary locations across the country, the commander added, saying it is ready for any practical operation.

Iran took delivery of missiles of the S-300 system in July 2016.

In March 2017, during a war game dubbed Damavand, Iran conducted a successful test of the S-300 anti-aircraft missile system.

The system can detect 20 targets simultaneously and directly engage with 12 separate hostile flying objects, including missiles, fighter jets or helicopters.
