Tehran (Web Desk/Agencies): Iran’s Army Force has reached its highest level of preparedness and is ready to respond to any hostile threat with full strength, Army Force Spokesman Brigadier General Mohammad Akraminia has said.

He stated that the military continues to improve its combat readiness by modernising damaged military systems, introducing newly developed equipment and strengthening its capabilities through domestically produced technology.

According to him, the arrival of advanced equipment at operational units has allowed the Army to reorganise its combat resources in line with present-day battlefield demands.

Akraminia said that expanding into new forms of warfare remains among Iran’s strategic options, adding that several other military strategies are also being pursued and will be unveiled when the appropriate time comes.

He noted that the Army’s defence capabilities have grown considerably in recent years through a comprehensive approach that includes repairing and upgrading existing systems, inducting modern equipment, enhancing indigenous defence production and boosting the confidence and morale of military personnel.

The spokesman explained that restoring outdated and damaged military assets has become an essential part of maintaining operational effectiveness, particularly under current security conditions.

He said the Army is using its engineering expertise and specialised workforce to rebuild and modernise equipment, describing the effort as a key component of Iran’s long-term defence policy aimed at preserving deterrence and improving its ability to respond swiftly to emerging threats.

The spokesperson further said that the induction of new military hardware has enabled the Army to reorganise its weapons and operational resources according to evolving defence requirements.

Highlighting the significance of air defence, Akraminia said it remains one of the country’s foremost security priorities.

He stressed that amid an increasingly challenging regional environment and a wide range of potential threats, maintaining a robust air defence network is essential to protecting Iran’s airspace and safeguarding strategic national infrastructure.

The spokesman also underlined the importance of the human element in military strength, saying that while advanced equipment plays a critical role, the real power of an armed force ultimately depends on the commitment, discipline, mental preparedness and determination of its personnel.

He added that members of the Army currently possess a strong sense of purpose, high morale and unwavering resolve to carry out their duties.
