Today was scheduled another US-Iran meeting in Qatar, am I right?...

I had a similar imagination from Russian hypersonic missile. Look at the rear end, an engine.

Whoever has designed this nice Picture, i am sure, he or she had an eye on impact of Russian missile that landed in Ukraine.
 
While it is true that the Qasem-Basir decelerates to mach 1-2 in the final phase to impact, increasing the odds for late stage interception (e.g., by David's Sling or Arrow-2), the Qasem-Basir is still a very important development:
  • During Operation TP2, around 40-45 impacts were identified at Israel's Nevatim Air Base.
  • Very few interceptions or attempted interceptions were observed, leading many to speculate that Israel chose to preserve its ABM interceptors to defend population centres / cities rather than large air bases such as Nevatim.
  • From those 40-45 impacts, only c. 4 impacts accurately and effectively hit a building, with very bad accuracy (500m+) shown by approx. half of the impacting warheads (if we exclude these 'stray' hits, the average CEP of the remaining hits can be c. 80m).
  • If those 40-45 impacts had <5m CEP with a Qasem-Basir EO guided warhead, the damage would have been substantial (destruction of control towers, all soft shelters, Israeli government plane, all aircraft in the open - material losses in the billions and shutting down the base for weeks).
4 buildings hit from 40-45 impacts vs 40 buildings hit. That could be the impact of the Qasem-Basir during a war.

Additionally, EO sensors can work at much faster speeds than mach 1, so we can expect continuous improvements to the guidance system to improve the missile's survivability.

This Qasem-Basir missile is super accurate and nearly invincible

1) It makes maneuvres at high altitude and that means neither Arrow-3, not David's Sling/THAAD/PAC-3 can intercept it.

2) While making maneuvres it remains accurate (<5m) thanks to its EO sensor

3) It's impossible to spoof or jam this missile because it doesn't use GPS/GLONASS/BAIDOU

4) EO sensor of this missile can also provide real-time damage assessment

So imagine a missile that can hit its target with <5m accuracy in 4 minutes, while enemy can't intercept or jam it.

Only counter-measure is creating lots of smoke above the target to misguide its EO sensor or using decoys to fool the missile.

But you can't create smoke for long periods of time and you can't create decoys for large static targets like buildings or power stations.

Iran needs satellites with EO sensors to provide real-time targeting data for this missile
