Tehran Times: "Iran launches 5 electronic warfare equipment production lines"

Half the news stories from Iran seem to be about new military capabilities, but the nukes are peaceful:
Iranian Defense Minister Mostafa-Mohammad Najjar attended the inauguration ceremony for five production lines for electronic warfare equipment, including radar systems, in Shiraz on Tuesday.

The production lines will be operated by Shiraz Electronic Industries (Sashiraz), which is affiliated to the Defense Ministry, and will manufacture three types of radar system, time fuses, and other electronic warfare equipment.

"Iran’s security on the ground, in the air, and in space will be remarkably improved when the armed forces utilize the advanced domestically produced equipment," Najjar said at the ceremony.

The sanctions have actually motivated Iranian scientists to reach new heights, he added.
I wonder what Iranian scientists would achieve after an invasion.
