Iran’s Defense Minister hailed the features of the Aras-2 Tactical Vehicle and said its mobility in rugged terrain, its heavy-duty gears and weaponry, its high power and torque, and its power-to-weight ratio, which is far greater than its predecessor’s, are remarkable improvements.

The ministry says the new vehicles confirmed Iran’s military capability despite the sanctions imposed by the West.
