Iranian Missiles | News and Discussions

[Mehdipersian]

Intresting enough at one point, Iran said K-4 is it’s most advanced Missile. Which is puzzling since it doesn’t have maneuverability after re-entry and relies on exo-atmospheric repositioning. Which means it’s accuracy can be off by as much as 250 meters.

Khorramshahr 4 has a new warhead guidance system and is different from other Iranian missiles:

Yes we have seen this graphic before. It uses thrusters to realign itself to the target outside the atmosphere.

However, if the warhead were face unaccounted for atmospheric conditions it will not be able to maneuver since it lacks fins and the thrusters it has are not for endostmospheric maneuvering.

This means the missile cannot do avoidance inside the atmosphere.

10-30 CEP is ideal conditions.

Thus Fattah 1&2 are the more advanced missile.

I also recall a recent interview where they said they reached 16km range with Almas (air launched)

mass production of Kheybar Shekan / Fattah / Raad-500 boosters in Shahrud

I assume those are empty (no fuel).

You wouldn’t stack solid or gel fuel filled boosters on top of each other like that and let them sit outside in the elements. The static discharge risk is thru the roof. Not to mention 1-2 quad copter’s sent to hit them would wipe half of the base off the map.

Apply for being an IRGC strategist commander and advise them, they will welcome all your instructions that they surely never thought of and apply them with pleasure

obviously not fuelled, here they just produce the boosters, the fuel is produced elsewhere

more important is huge rate of production of Kheybar Shaken, Fattah, Raad-500, Raafe, this is very encouraging

these facilities should ideally be spread across iran in underground bases as well, ensuring constant supply of missiles that is less detectable by satellite and much more survivable (i.e. cannot be taken out by a simple terrorist cell firing a quadcopter at it)

They didn’t think of putting protocol sand/concrete beams in key areas at Tehrani Moghadaams base outside Tehran. Or rather they likely did, but ignored safety protocols as was well known on his team.

Add to the fact of the close proximity of various storage facilities and testing stands on base led a chain reaction event. Hence why the base was obliterated in what is “officially” a static discharge event during transportation/storage of a missile.

So yes IRGC is not as infalliable as you mockingly like to preach. One merely needs to take a look at a list of Iranian shaheeds in the development of missile program to confirm this.

There is predecendent of going after Missile development sites by Mossad

Here is a 2021 attack on a site involved in the liquid fuel program:

It is quite a accomplishment and gives us a peak at the production rate capability that has largely been hidden outside of official revealings.

I remember a quote by an Israeli official that the Iranian military industrial complex now is much much larger than the Israeli counterpart.

There are hundreds of sites (if not thousands) tied to the Iranian military industrial complex. The real limitation is money at this point due to sanctions. Capability is there, but the money has to spread across many needs.

Our military budget is still nothing compared to our regional rivals and peers officially on paper at least.

Thus if Iran were to double its military budget, just imagine the possibilities of production and how many projects that are in prototype stage get the greenlight to move further into R&D and production.

to be fair that was more than 10 years ago and the safety measures for the underground bases seem adequate

Reminds me of the 'we make them like candy' which turned out to be true.

 

[Mr Iran Eye]

How do you manage not to notice that Iran's military budget is bigger than what is publicly announced? It's so obvious that they produce a lot of things that we see publicly but also that we don't see yet.

no they didn't
