The Khordad 15 is a ground-based, mobile air defense system developed by the Islamic Republic of Iran and designed to take out aircraft and unmanned air vehicles (UAVs) at ranges in excess of 100 kilometers. The weapon system comprises phased array radar capable of detecting airborne targets at up to 150 kilometers and tracking them at distances of up to 120 kilometers. Besides, the Khordad 15 includes an array of independent missile launch systems firing the Sayyad 3 long-range surface-to-air missile with a maximum range of 120 kilometers and a maximum flight altitude of 27 kilometers. The new air defense system can engage up to six targets simultaneously while being capable of shooting them down in less than five minutes after detection. Iran unveiled the new Khordad 15 high mobility air defense system in June 2019.
