Tehran, August 21, IRNA -- Iran’s defense industry is capable to challenge the western competitors in terms of manufacturing equipment for the ground and air forces and the Navy.

Marking the Day of Defense Industry, August 22, the Iranian Army said in a statement that the Day marks the indefatigable efforts of the faithful personnel who helped cut dependence on the alien powers and neutralize their threats.

The statement said that the achievements made in the past three decades despite mounting pressures and sanctions led to self-reliance of the armed forces.

'Undoubtedly, designing and manufacture of modern defense hardware have promoted the country’s preparedness and helped the Islamic Republic of Iran materialize its lofty goals to defend the oppressed and withstand the bullying powers,' it said.
