Iranian Missiles | News and Discussions

Messerschmitt said:
Haj-Qasem (AIO) is being mass-produced as it‘s a successor to Dezful and not a direct competitor to Kheibar-Shekan (IRGC-ASF-SSJ) which is a more advanced but also pricier missile. Haj-Qasem is basically a longer-range Dezful with more upside potential for range extension while Kheibar-Shekan belongs to a new missile family with Fattah-1 and Fattah-2 being its latest family members.

I think he is right, when Haj Qasem was released they said range can be extended to 1800km (I thought they said it for KS, but it was Haj Qasem)

less than 10 months ago they said IRGC will receive Haj Qasem soon: https://en.mehrnews.com/news/203758/IRGC-to-receive-Haj-Qassem-ballistic-missile-in-near-future

also recently when they showed 4x Khorramshahr missiles there were 2x Haj Qasem missiles next to them. so this suggests it has entered some production

but to be honest they probably use same or similar booster so they can be very interchangeable

What are the differences? What is stats of K-2?

I cannot find any site that has documented Khaybar Shekan 2 or any infographic.

Everything is that one picture on X and Hajizadeh quote that they didn’t use K-2 in recent raid.

Very strange


Khaybar Shekan 1 range ~1400 KM

Fattah-1 range ~1450 KM

I honestly think K-2 is just Fattah-1.

My theory is the main difference between K-1 and K-2 is K-1 does a skip glide low trajectory endo atmospheric trajectory and K-2/Fattah-1 do a exo atmospheric skip glide jump using the rocket powered booster attached the RV.

K-1 slower endo atmospheric depressed trajectory making it harder to spot by radars on ground.

K-2 Mach 12+ exo atmospheric trajectory with booster to counteract the drag of RV design and allow “skip” part of its skip-glide.

I am not an expert in BM. But the new one seems to have the fins more arrow-angled. More speed?
