Iran is after obtaining materials that would help the country to
develop stealth missiles, a senior military official said.
Brigadier General Hossein Salami, the second-in-command of the
Islamic Revolution Guards Corps, has said that the country is in
need of materials making it possible to develop missiles capable of
hiding from the enemy’s radars, electromagnetic or laser systems,
Mehr news agency reported.
He made the remarks at the inaugural ceremony of the Center for
Advanced Materials and Nanotechnology at Imam Hossein University in
Tehran.
Saying that materials play a significant role in developing weapons
and defense technologies, he added that the Center for Advanced
Materials and Nanotechnology has been organized to carry out
research works regarding the characteristics of materials employed
in creating defense technologies.

The Islamic Republic maintains that its military might poses no
threat to other countries, stating that its defense doctrine is
merely based on deterrence.
