Iran's acting defense minister Ibn al-Reza, speaking at a defense-industry
managers' meeting, said he was confident that if war broke out again Iran would
fight on a far stronger, more technologically advanced level than in past
conflicts. He said those who call Iran's technical activity, production lines
and weapons factories mere media narratives have seen Iranian forces'
capabilities on the battlefield; current displays are only a small part of
actual capacity and potential, and development will continue strongly.
