Fattah missile is a “big generational leap" for Iran weaponry, state TV says
Iran on Tuesday unveiled what officials are describing as its first domestically-made hypersonic ballistic missile, one it claims can "bypass the most advanced anti-ballistic missile systems of the United States" and "Israel’s Iron Dome."
The Fattah missile, which was showcased at a ceremony attended by Iranian President Ebrahim Rahisi and commanders of the country’s Revolutionary Guards Corps, has a top speed of around Mach 14 – more than 10,000 mph -- according to Reuters, citing Iranian state media.
"The precision-guided Fattah hypersonic missile has a range of [870 miles] and it is capable of penetrating all defense shields," Amirali Hajizadeh, the head of the Guards' aerospace force, was quoted by Reuters as saying to state media.

Yeah sure they have. More likely something they got out of a cereal box, powered by a rubber band
ReplyDeleteLaunched by the toy stealth fighter lol
ReplyDeleteSpeed is a misleading quantifier. Missiles have travelled faster than 10k mph forever. What actually defines the hypersonic generation is the ability to maneuver at 10k mph. To randomly change from a ballistic arc to a zig zag to a straight line while maintaining speed and control. Iran can't do that. We can't do that.
ReplyDeleteThe last U.S hypersonic test was a success .
DeleteWow good observation Fazzy....So we are now only, what? 5 years behind the power curve on this.
ReplyDeleteIt is called mis management and incompetence.
Wow they really needed them in Afghanistan lol. Ukraine has shown that they are no game changer , and if you beleive that iran has or can effectively deploy them ..well 😉
DeleteUkraine has no aircraft carriers to sink with hypersonics Fazman. How can you know if they're a game changer or not when Ukraine has only 3 targets worth using them on, and they already DID destroy significant portions of 2 of the 3 patriot batteries.
ReplyDeleteIt's so hard to understand where these insane beliefs of yours come from.
