Iran has inaugurated 20 electronic, radar and optical projects, Press TV reported.

The projects were unveiled on Saturday in a ceremony attended by Iran's Defense Minister Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi as part of the country's long-term plan to expand its defense capabilities and upgrade equipment, the Defense Ministry said in a statement.

Vahidi said the projects include the latest know-how in electronic warfare, radar technology, navigation and avionics systems and thermal cameras.

He added that upgrading equipment used by the Armed Forces is among top priorities of Iran's Defense Ministry and said electronics and communications play an important role in achieving sustainable development.
