Iran buying 12 night vision helicopters from Russia: IRCS

Tehran, IRNA – Iran purchased 15 helicopters from Russia, including 12 night vision aircraft, during the administration of late President Ebrahim Raisi, an official with the IRCS said Sunday.

Head of the Relief and Rescue Organization of the Iranian Red Crescent Society (IRCS) Babak Mahmoudi told IRNA that Iran purchased 12 rescue helicopters with night vision capability and three firefighting helicopters from Russia under President Raisi.

This contract was signed with the officials of the company that produces specialized helicopters in late April, Mahmoudi added.
