Iranian Missiles | News and Discussions

[strkyer1982]

Given the range I agree, that or Fateh 313, although the reports talk about drones being used as well

The location was only 100km and less from the border though

They fvcking pulverized it.
Supposedly the largest missile attack ever carried out by iran,great to see.

 

[Hack-Hook]

Anything about what was exactly used to unfortunately strike Pakistan?

The distance is about 90 to 100km so what logically come in mind is Fateh 110c or Fajr-5

How is a missile using only the inertial guidance system possible with this precision?

Even the Pershing II (I believe it is an approximate analogue of the Kheybar Shekan considering that both missiles are MaRV-type MRBMs) still used a more advanced guidance system to have greater precision.

Considering the accuracy of these weapons,I`d say its pretty certain that they`re using satellite assisted inertial guidance.

Precision has gone the way of the dodo wrt nuclear tipped missiles due to blast radius. OTOH, with conventional missiles there is a requirement for precision with minute CEP. How is it done? A technical explanation below. Fiber-Optic Gyroscope:

Reports of a third series of strikes:

my guess the advancement in electronics since 70s and 80s

Glonass or Beidou?

 

[Persian Gulf]

Glonass or Beidou?

I would guess Glonass but Iran has access to 5 satellites in orbit right now itself

Only two of the 17 missiles fired at Al Assad made it through.

As U.S. and Militias Engage, White House Worries About a Tipping Point

The number of attacks on American troops in the Middle East increases the risk of deaths, a red line that could lead to a wider war.

"Two out of an estimated 17 rockets and short-range ballistic missiles fired at the base made it through air defense systems" suggests the US doesn't know how many were rockets and how many were SRBMs

the US fired 15 Patriot interceptors at those 17 rockets and SRBMs ... how much does each Patriot PAC-3 interceptor cost ?
