Iran's Outdated Air Defense System
(UPI) Iran wants the S-300 to protect its key nuclear facilities. In the meantime, the key weapon in Iran's air-defense network is the Russian-built Tor-M1 short-range interceptor system which is already deployed around nuclear facilities. Apart from the 29 mobile Tor-M1 units, the Iranian network is largely outdated. It is not known to have any effective defenses against U.S. stealth bombers or the Israelis' known electronic jamming capabilities.
