Iran has military technologies that no one knows about, and the Americans will know about them when Iran uses them, said Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the IRGC, Admiral Ali Fadavi, reports Mehr.

He noted that during the war with Iraq, the Iranian armed forces imported all their military equipment from outside, while now the country has made great progress in building its own defense capabilities.

We could not even produce barbed wire inside the country, but today we have been able to sell some of our military equipment to world powers. Some people said that we don't need to produce speedboats and warships and we should buy this equipment, but we were able to produce speedboats, which the Americans admitted that they are not capable of facing Iran's speedboats," the IRGC deputy commander said.

"In the maritime field, we purchased surface-to-surface missiles from China in 1984, but then we decided to start to produce missiles ourselves, and today we have been able to produce a cruise missile with a range of 2,000 kilometers," he continued.

The United States had many warships in the Persian Gulf in the past, he said, but today the Americans don't have the same presence. "Today the Americans have escaped from the region despite having 373 warships and aircraft carriers in the Persian Gulf. Because they knew that if there had been a war, the American warships would have sunk."

According to Fadavi, "We have technologies in the military field that no one knows about, and the Americans will know about them when we use them."
