TEHRAN, YJC. The ground force of the IRGC on Wednesday unveiled part of its new achievements in weapon systems.
The new products were unveiled in an exhibition of the latest achievements of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Ground Force in the training sphere.

One of the new weapons was a machinegun which has been named Hami (meaning supporter), equipped with remote control capability and a shot range of 2 kilometers.

The Ground Force also displayed a day-vision goggle with a 20-kilometer range, a thermal goggle and a laser range detector (LRD) for Hami.

The other achievements included two brand-new automatic and man-portable grenade launchers.

In recent years, the Islamic Republic of Iran has made big achievements in its military industry sector and has been pushing toward self-sufficiency in producing essential military equipment and arms.

Iran has repeatedly assured other countries that its military power will pose no threat to other countries, saying that the country’s defense doctrine is entirely based on deterrence.
