Air defense divisions of the Army and the IRGC are holding the large-scale military exercise, codenamed 'Modafean Aseman Velayat 1401' (Guardians of 'Velayat' Sky 1401), involving air defense units and domestically-developed military hardware.

Second Brigadier General Amir Abbas Farajpour, the spokesman of Modafean Aseman Velayat 1401 military drills, said that “bolstering defenses against enemy threats to the country’s skies and comprehensive defense of sensitive and vital centers of the country are among these drills' goals”.

Iran’s Armed Forces regularly hold military maneuvers to elevate their preparedness and military prowess.

The drills serve as a warning message to the enemies against any act of aggression against the Islamic Republic.

'Modafean Aseman Velayat 1400' was held in October 2021. (ILKHA)
