Tehran - Iranian senior lawmaker Alaeddin Bouroujerdi said that if Russia does not keep its contractual obligation to deliver S-300 missiles, Iran would start developing their own SAM systems. Iran claims they will have the capability to create their own systems in the near future.
Russia is currently six months late on delivering the S-300, but Russia has said they would not cancel the contract. Russia is also under pressure from the US and Israel to delay or cancel the shipment. Iran has urged Russia not to concede to any western pressure, specifically involving the Radar and Interceptor missile agreements with the US.
