TEHRAN (FNA)- The Iranian Armed Forces have developed a new system, named 'Nama', which helps commanders monitor and control the battle ground from inside their moving vehicle, a senior commander announced on Wednesday.


"Project Nama is the latest achievement of Khatam ol-Anbia Air Defense Base in the field of battlefield command by means of which commanders can monitor the battle ground from inside a moving vehicle," Commander of Khatam ol-Anbia Air Defense Base Brigadier General Farzad Esmayeeli said.

He said the previous systems made commanders monitor the battlefield from the command center, which could be tracked and destroyed by the enemies very easily. "But by using Nama, the commander of a goven (war) zone can control all missile and cannon systems and (therefore) the speed and precision of the commander's decision-making will increase considerably."

In recent years, Iran has made great achievements in its defense sector and attained self-sufficiency in producing essential military equipment and systems.

Irans Defense Minister Brigadier General Hossein Dehqan underlined in August that he is determined to enhance the countrys defense capabilities during his tenure in a bid to defend the country against possible foreign threats.

Brigadier General Dehqan made the pledge in his message issued on the occasion of the Defense Industry Day.

Upgrading defense capabilities and deterrence power (of the country) to defend the countrys sovereignty, territorial integrity, national interests and security, exercising effective confrontation against foreign threats, and establishing a regional balance constitute the roadmap of the Islamic Republics defense industry movement till reaching the desired destination, Dehqan said in a statement.

Dehqan termed the Iranian defense industries as a symbol of power, might, progress and self-sufficiency of the Islamic Republic.
