Iran and the Weapons of the Future

In 2025, Iran is positioning itself as a regional military player capable of challenging technologically superior powers through a strategy of asymmetric innovation. This concept is based on the idea that Iran does not seek to match its adversaries conventionally, but to bypass them through non-linear tactics, frugal technologies and a hybrid doctrine. The book analyzes how this strategy has been consolidated over the decades, in response to sanctions, diplomatic isolation and perceived threats.Iran's doctrine is based on a hybrid strategy: ballistic deterrence, nuclear latency, support for paramilitary groups (Hezbollah, Houthis), and indirect projection via proxies. This approach enables Iran to compensate for its air and naval weaknesses with an extended capacity to cause harm.
