Tehran - Iran announced on Saturday that it had successfully test-fired new anti-armour and anti-helicopter missiles on the third day of its latest war games.
"The new generation of anti-helicopter and anti-armour weapons were successfully tested on day three of the manoeuvres," an announcer on state television said as pictures of the test-firing were broadcast.
Iran has so far fired its Shahab-3 longer range missile for the first time in manoeuvres in the "Great Prophet II" war games, as well as new types of land-to-sea and sea-to-sea missiles.
