Baher or Bahr (Persian: ی "باهر) is an Iranian anti-materiel rifle designed to damage watchtowers, fortifications, aircraft, APC, IFV and radar systems.[1][2]
Design[]
The Baher has a long barrel to increase its muzzle energy, the standard version is mounted on a tripod. The trigger must be pulled to eject a case and to fire separately.[1][2]
Users[]
- The Islamic Republic of Iran Armed Forces use an improved version of the Baher, which utilizes a bipod instead of the tripod.[2]
