Iran's acting defense minister stated that despite difficulties and sanctions, Iran's defense industry has successfully strengthened and enhanced the deterrent capabilities of its armed forces' "long arm." Although adversaries claim to have destroyed it in recent wars, Iran has maintained production lines for the equipment and weapons needed by its armed forces through necessary prudent planning and foresight. Furthermore, it has successfully deployed new offensive and defensive systems to the battlefield under wartime conditions, a process that continues strongly. Iran will not succumb to pressure, and this resistance has so far broken the strategic deadlock and perplexed the Trump administration.
