The Iranian military industry currently produces several types of modern ATGMs capable of destroying any tank. For example, mass production of the Toophan-3M guided missile, which is an analogue of the American TOW-2B, has begun in the Islamic Republic.

Toophan
As you know, the peculiarity of this munition is the presence of two charges acting on the principle of a "shock core". The attacked tank is hit in the least protected part - in the roof.
Earlier versions of the Toophan-2 with a tandem warhead are also being produced. There are also laser-guided ones, including those designed to combat helicopters.
Night thermal imaging sights have been created for the launchers, which make it possible to effectively use these weapons at night.

Dehlaviyeh
ATGM Dehlaviyeh is, in fact, a clone of the Russian "Cornet-E". In addition to the portable version of the ATGM, they are also installed on BMP-2 and combat helicopters.
It is also necessary to mention Tosan, a copy of the "Contest M", they were released in many thousands of copies.

According to information that appeared on the Web, both variants of "Almaz" were involved in the military maneuvers taking place near the border with Azerbaijan.
