STEPANAKERT, FEBRUARY 22, ARTSAKHPRESS-ARMENPRESS: “I can show you the algorithm. The function and parameters of this weapon enable to inflict irreversible damage to infrastructures of a country, which it can be used against. Respectively, the decision on using Iskanders will closely depend on developments of the situation. In any case, we view it as a weapon of a guaranteed blow, if such necessity happens. First of all, it is a deterrent weapon. It is obvious that developments of the situation can dictate the consideration of such approaches, but fundamentally, with its ideology and possibilities that weapon is such that it should freeze any hot head during decision making”, he said.

The Iskander missile systems were for the first time displayed on September 21, 2016 during the military parade on the 25th anniversary of Armenia’s independence.
