Russia Mulls Delivering E-Warfare Equipment to Iran: Report

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Russia is considering a plan to deliver ground-based defensive electronic warfare systems to Iran, a report said.

"We are ready to consider a possibility of ground-based EW (Electronic Warfare) delivery to Iran if necessary and should the political situation allows," Igor Nasenkov, the first deputy general director of the Concern Radio-Electronic Technologies (KRET), told RIA Novosti at the Dubai Airshow-2015 on Monday.

KRET, one of Russia's largest holding companies, was founded in 2009. The company is part of the Rostec state technologies corporation, uniting over 95 radio-electronic industrial companies.

The manufacturer has developed several EW systems, including the radar complex Moskva-1, onboard defense system President-S for civil and military aircraft, and the Rtut-BM system to alert troops and equipment to incoming artillery fire.
