Iranian state media displayed on Thursday a “domestically built” long-range, mobile surface-to-air missile system.

The announcement comes at the time of increasing tensions between US and Iran over the downing of a US military surveillance drone in the Gulf in June.

According to a report by Reuters, western military analysts say that Tehran often exaggerate about its own military capacities, though its nuclear program remain a serious concern of western as well as local countries.

since May 2018, US President Donald Trump withdrew from Iran nuclear treaty with world powers and re-imposed new rounds of sanctions on Tehran, hoping to change Iran’s aggressive behaviors.
