Russian officials stated today that Iran has not requested weapons and Russia is not supplying them. Leaked Russian contracts published by Ukraine's United24 show Russia supplying Iran with 120 X-38 laser-guided air-to-ground missiles, 123 R-73 short-range air-to-air missiles, 42 R-77 medium-range air-to-air missiles, and 42 X-31 anti-radar/anti-ship missiles.

All listed missiles are tied to Iran's Su-35 contracts, with components ordered through 2027. Iran appears in Russian documents under the code name "K10." The same source material includes reporting from Reuters on the contracts.
