Iran has installed new home-made radar system Sepher (Sky) able to monitor all the country.

"We don’t have any bottleneck left with regard to the Sepehr Radar system and over 40% of its deployment plan has ended and we don't have any problem" with its development and deployment, Esmayeeli told FNA on Sunday.

He said once fully deployed, the radar system will cover such a wide range that Iranian forces will be able to monitor the start of a flight or firing of a missile as soon as it starts from enemy basis thousands of kilometers away.

"The radar will be included in the integrated air defense network in future after it is fully deployed, and then we will be able to even feel the enemies' breathing in their bases with the help of the 2,500 to 3,000km range (of the radar)," he added.

"The Sepehr radar system covers a range of over 2,500 kilometers and can detect stealth targets and micro UAVs at low, medium and high altitudes while it can also very easily identify and detect ballistic, semi-ballistic and cruise missiles," Lieutenant Commander of Khatam ol-Anbia Air Defense Base Brigadier General Shahrokh Shahram said addressing the unveiling ceremony.

The commander underlined that Sepehr could successfully pass all tests.

At the same time, the radar went under a last test of operation and assessment, and General Shahram said the results were successful and "the information gathered by the radar during its last assessment test today was for the first time fed into the country's integrated radar and air defense network".
