Source measurement	Bavar-373 utilizes Sayyad-4 missiles, which are contained in two rectangular launch canisters. No formal information was given about this missile, but it appears from news photos that Sayyad-4 is similar to Sayyad-3 in wings and control surfaces; however, it varies slightly in frontal shape.^[source]Bavar-373 · Design; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage Bavar-373 uses a phased array radar for tracking aerodynamic targets and ballistic missiles in medium to long ranges, mounted on the ZAFAR heavy truck. Iran claims that it can track up to 200 targets simultaneously.^[source]Bavar-373 · Design; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage	The FK-2000 surface-to-air missile (SAM) system consists of a self-propelled air defense vehicle mounted on an 8x8 transporter chassis with an unmanned turret mounted on top. The missile is capable of targeting aircraft at a range of 1.2–25 km (0.75–15.53 mi) and cruise missiles at a range of 1.2–10 km (0.75–6.21 mi). A total of 12 missiles are mounted on the side of the turret with an independent elevation mechanism. The close-in air defense is provided by two 30 mm (1.2 in) six-barrel Gatling cannon, also with adjustable elevation. A search radar is mounted at the top-rear position of the turret, while the targeting radar is mounted at the front position. An optical/infrared tracking sight is also mounted as the auxiliary fire control.^[source]FK-2000 · Description; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage In July 2026, Emirati military deployed FK-2000 in Manama coast, Bahrain against Iranian threats posed during 2026 Iran War .^[source]FK-2000 · Operational history; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage
