Syria-Lebanon-Iran
S-300 system fully delivered to Iran
2016-12-05
Spokesman of Majlis National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Hossein Naqavi-Hosseini said Sunday that Russia fully delivered all parts of S-300 air defense system to Iran and the two countries have agreed to develop logistical and technical cooperation, IRNA reported.
Not to worry, the Israelis know how to activate remotely the 'off' switch'...
Naqvi-Hosseini said that the air defense system was finally handed over to Iran despite the ups and downs and Iran currently has taken possession of the technology as well as air defense technology.

MP of Varamin said that given the full implementation of the S-300 deal by Russia, there is no need for pursuing complaint with the International Court of Arbitration over delays in delivery of the air defense system. Fortunately, Tehran and Moscow have excellent ties in the field of arms interaction, he said.

Self-destruct would be acceptable also.

#2  So,...the S-400 must be out of production in deployment volume.

#1  I'm guessing the Russians sold it to Iran knowing it will just get destroyed five seconds after we cross the line of departure into Iran.
