The spokesman stated that the IRGC was in the final stages of procuring the jets before the war began in late February. Akraminia emphasized that the necessary preliminary work, including procurement, contract signing, pilot training, and instruction, had already been completed. He expressed optimism that Iran would receive the Su-35s post-war to enhance its air fleet. Iran aims to strengthen its air defenses post-war, and Akraminia acknowledged that the US sanctions have hindered the country's ability to acquire advanced military technologies. However, he assured that Iran has been developing its capabilities domestically through the efforts of its specialists, universities, and defense industries.",
