Raad-1 and Hezbolla

edit

I have removed this section, because clearly it does not refer to 155 mm artillery, but to a missile/rocket of some description. Please refer to the page for the missile of the same name: RAAD (missile). There seems to be widespread confusion regarding the "raad" name, the most accurate information seems to indicate it's an Iranian copy of a short range anit-tank missile, while other sources says it's a long range (+1000km) cruise missile (and anti-ship). Some sources call it the "Ra'ad" (which seems to be arabic for son: Ra'ad) while others call it "Raad" (or RAAD) claiming it means "thunder". Deon Steyn 06:13, 19 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Is the photo genuine? If so, then this is clearly a clone of the Soviet 2S1 GvozdikaMichael Z. 2007-08-10 21:29 Z

Good evening.
Raad 1 is NOT a clone of 2S1. It only uses Gvozdika's turret and gun. The chassis in Raad 1 comes from Boragh APC which itself is reverse engineered BMP-1 or Type 86 (Chinese BMP-1 copy). 2S1 uses the chassis of MT-LB.
