The Iranian Army concluded large-scale electronic warfare maneuvers in the country's central territories under the codename "The Shield of the Guardians of Jurisprudence," Iranian media reported.

On Friday, several divisions of the Iranian Army began a joint, large-scale military exercise to assess the effectiveness of electronic warfare units, including locally built and manufactured radars, drones, micro aerial vehicles (MAVs), and other military equipment.

The Army's Ground Force, Air Force, Navy, and Air Defense units took part in the joint aerial maneuver, codenamed Separ-e Hafezan-e Velayat 1402 (the Shield of the Guardians of Jurisprudence 1402).

Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari, Deputy Chief of Iran's Army for Coordination, pointed out that the drill included various types of homegrown electronic warfare systems, radars, drones, cyber and aerospace systems, manned and unmanned fighter jets, micro aerial vehicles, as well as fixed, mobile, ground- and air-based electronic warfare systems.

Sayyari revealed that more than 95 percent of the war game plans have been carried out successfully, reiterating Iran’s full preparedness for defense and emphasizing that the Islamic Republic would never attack or take aggressive action against any country.

“We are trying to enhance our offense and defense capabilities and keep prepared to counter any type of threat,” Sayyari noted, warning the enemies that any mistake would draw Iran’s decisive response.

The Iranian Rear Admiral also emphasized the essential importance of electronic warfare in current and future confrontations, pointing to Iran's recent efforts to develop and train its personnel and technology resources in this arena.

The Iranian Tasnim news agency detailed that during the maneuver, electronic warfare support activities were carried out by both manned and unmanned aerial vehicles (Ababil 3, 4, 5, and Kaman 12), and electronic defensive systems.

The news agency added that "the exercise encompassed tasks such as identifying radio and data communications, executing group annihilation operations using micro aerial vehicles, electronic radar protection, and disrupting and deceiving ground-based radar systems with a range of tactical and jamming systems."

It further noted that "the exercise featured aerial tracking operations by Air Force fighter jets and disruption and deception operations aimed at cruise missile navigation, utilizing both airborne and ground-based platforms."
