"The Armed Forces have pursued and will pursue the principle of technological surprise against the enemy and at the same time prevent any kind of surprise in the offensive and defensive fields," Talaei-Nik indicated.

Despite years-long Western sanctions imposed on the country, Iranian military experts and technicians have made significant advancements in producing a wide range of homegrown equipment, achieving self-sufficiency for the Iranian Armed Forces.

Iranian officials have consistently affirmed that the country will not hesitate to enhance its military capabilities, which are entirely intended for defense purposes.

Talaei-Nik noted that Iran ranks among the top 10 countries globally in terms of defense industry technology.

In mid-May, the Commander-in-Chief of the IRGC Major General Hossein Salami underlined that Iran's power has grown enormously, to the extent that it "fearlessly" attacks the heart of global arrogance.
