RT: Russian deliveries of S-300s to Iran ‘ahead of schedule,’ arms export official says
Iran is receiving its first deliveries of Russian-made S-300 air defense systems well ahead of schedule, and Tehran is in talks with Moscow about the purchase of other weaponry, Russia’s top arms export official said.
Russian deliveries of S-300 anti-aircraft systems to Iran are going as planned, the head of Russia's federal arms exports service, FSVTS, told journalists on Tuesday.
“I would even say that we’re well ahead of schedule,” Fomin was quoted by TASS as saying. “Hopefully, everything will be fine.”
He added that Russia and Iran have additionally discussed the procurement of other military equipment, but did not elaborate on the issue: "The talk is about only authorized items which are not on the UN list [of prohibited offensive weapons systems]."
