43% : Iran's drone and missile advances in recent decades have been primarily driven by a lack of air power, which Tehran is now looking to rebuild with the new Russian jets deal.
36% : In the past, Russia has been wary of giving Iran a military edge in the region, but that has changed due to Moscow's global isolation over Ukraine and increasing reliance on Iran.
