The minister said the country has also built an advanced tank, "which is as good as, if not better than, Russian-made T90 tanks."
He said the tank`s name is "Karrar" and it will be unveiled in the near future.
In October, Iran announced it "successfully" test-fired the country`s first long-range missile of Emad which could be guided and controlled until hitting the target with high precision.
In December, a United Nations experts` report said Iran violated the UN Security Council Resolution 1929 by test-firing the Emad missile capable of delivering a nuclear warhead.
The UN report said the Emad ballistic missile has a range of "no less than 1,000 km with a payload of at least 1,000 kg."
Under Resolution 1929, Iran is prohibited from working on ballistic missiles capable of delivering nuclear warheads.
However, Dehqan rejected the report, saying that the Emad missile is "totally conventional."
The Islamic Republic is believed to have the largest ballistic missile arsenal in the Middle East and has developed a 2,000-km missile.
