Why It Matters
After the military tension and war between Iran and the USA, Iran is changing its military doctrine.
Iran decided to increase its missile range after the war with the USA. Iranian Army Spokesperson Brigadier General Mohammed Akraminiya said that the withdrawal of US forces to regions up to 1000 kilometers away from the Iranian coast has led Tehran to re-evaluate its missile capacity.
Speaking to Fars News Agency, Akraminiya said, "During this war, we came to the conclusion that we definitely need to increase our missile range, and we are now moving in this direction."
The statement came at a time when Iran was restructuring its military capacity after the war. Akraminiya had previously announced that the Iranian army had renewed its war-damaged systems, developed new weapons and increased its preparations against a possible new US attack.
Iranian officials have signaled that changes have been made in the country's military doctrine in recent months. Akraminiya said in September that they were moving to a strategy that would respond faster and stronger in case of threat.
