Brigadier General Alireza Sabahifard, the commander of the Islamic Republic of Iran Air Defense Force (IRIADF), has warned enemies of the country to beware of potential miscalculations, as they will be met with a “formidable blow.”
“We have warned them repeatedly against making mistakes in their calculations [concerning the country] since such miscalculations will be met with the force’s formidable blow,” he added.
“We have produced our required [defensive] equipment based on existing threats and even ahead of the threats, which have been evaluated rigorously, so we can use them precisely if need be,” Sabahifard noted.

Speaking on Sunday, Sabahifard emphasized that Iran’s Air Defense Force is well-equipped to deal decisively with any threat. He highlighted the force’s advanced defensive systems, which he described as incomparable in quality and at the cutting edge of the world’s state-of-the-art technology.
Sabahifard made it clear that the force’s power is a result of indigenous production, without any reliance on foreign countries. He noted that Iran’s military capabilities have significantly improved over the years, making the country a formidable force to reckon with.
The commander’s remarks come in the wake of escalating tensions with the United States and the Israeli regime, but Sabahifard assured that Iran’s military advancements are solely for defensive purposes and not open for negotiation.
Sabahifard, meanwhile, noted that the IRIADF had invariably “flaunted” its power in the face of Iran’s enemies, most notably the United States and the Israeli regime, throughout the 45 years that had past since the victory of the country’s Islamic Revolution in 1979.
He cited the force’s “invariable steadfastness” in its efforts to advance the goals of the Revolution, including during former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein’s Western-backed imposed war of the 1980s and the other crises that have faced the country over the recent years.
