- Partiel
- Zone d’activité générale
- Held at the ground force's disposal; deployed to Syria in 2016 by Iranian account. No location is authored.
- Historique notable
- The formation descends from the officers the imperial army sent to France for parachute training in 1953 and the airborne special-forces unit raised in 1959, whose first operation was in Oman's Dhofar war in support of the sultan. After the revolution it fought the Iran–Iraq war as the airborne brigade of the 23rd Commando Division, and in 1991 it was separated from the division as an independent brigade under the ground force. Its acronym, NOHED — airborne special forces — has become the name by which Iranian media and the compiled references know it. In 2016 Iranian officials acknowledged that Artesh special forces had been sent to Syria as advisers, the first admitted Artesh deployment abroad since the revolution, and the brigade was the unit named; the Guard's Saberin brigade had preceded it there. That acknowledgement is the brigade's significance here: it marks the point at which the conventional service was drawn into the Guard's external war.
- Points forts
- The country's oldest and, in the compiled assessments, best-trained special-operations formation; a lineage and professional culture that predate the state it serves.
- Limites
- A single brigade beside a Guard that fields several special-operations formations and controls the external mission; a Syria deployment described by Iran as advisory and by no one else in detail. Nothing here describes strength, basing or readiness.
