Iran has increased the number of its ballistic missiles, while increasing their precision-striking capability, the Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Aerospace Force, Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh said.

"In addition to enhancing the precision-striking power and quality of ballistic missiles, the Iranian authorities and experts have used innovative and shortcut methods to produce inexpensive missiles and today, we are witnessing an increase in production of ballistic missiles," Farsnews cited him as saying.

Noting that Iran has settled its problems and become self-sufficient in the field of defense and military activities, specially in strategic fields, he said that the country's experts have been able to boost missiles' precision-striking power to the utmost.

He also underlined the indigenous nature of most Iranian weapons and military equipment.
