Sepehr (radar)
Sepehr (Persian: سپهر, meaning "sky") is an over-the-horizon radar (OTH) developed by Iran.
Little is known of the project, except it has a reported range of 3,000 km.[1] It was originally scheduled to enter operational status in 2013.[2] In August 2013, Iran announced completion of a first phase of the project with a range of only 300–700 km.[3] In 2014 Iran announced it wished to establish a space-based radar system.[4] It was expected to be finalised by the end of 2014.[5] It is currently operational.[6]
