MEHR: The Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps Aerospace Force's Space Division says IRGC Aerospace seeks to launch Qaem 105 satellite carrier until end of this year.
Brigadier General Ali Jafarabadi, the Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps Aerospace Force's Space Division spoke about the upcoming test and launch of the next-generation Qaem 105 satelite carrier.
Qaem 105 satellite carrier can carry a larger cargo and almost twice as much as Qaem 100 satellite carrier, Jafarabadi noted.
IRGC Aerospace seeks to launch Qaem 105 satellite carrier until end of this year, he said, adding, "But if we will not able to do so, we will definitely launch the satellite carrier in the spring of next year."
Earlier in January, General Jafarabadi had said by projecting that within the next three years, Iran will embark on the research phase for launching satellites using the Qaem 120 carrier.
