Media coverage of the event showed the Fattah-2 consists of a ballistic missile motor that looks similar to the one used to power the Fattah missile that was unveiled in June and a re-entry vehicle (RV) that looks like it was inspired by Boeing's X-51 Waverider experimental hypersonic cruise missile, albeit without an air intake for a scramjet engine.
A cutaway model of the Fattah-2 RV shown to Khamenei had two tanks, one larger than the other, such as those used to hold the fuel and oxidiser in liquid-propellant ballistic missiles.

Tasnim News Agency reported that the RV's engine uses hydrazine fuel, which is typically used in hypergolic propellant combinations that spontaneously combust when mixed. Hypergolics are highly toxic and corrosive but are often used for spacecraft as their engines can be easily shutdown and restarted. While this engine would enable the Fattah-2 RV to accelerate outside the Earth's atmosphere, Tasnim reported that it can only steer when inside the atmosphere using its aerodynamic control surfaces.
The Iranian media reported that the Fattah-2 has a range of 1,500 km, not much farther than the 1,400 km of the Fattah, which has an RV powered by a solid-fuel rocket motor that has a movable nozzle that allows it to change course when outside the atmosphere to accurately help it evade air-defence systems.

Will Iran share this tech with Pakistan?
 
. .
Pakistan would never accept it with the current folks . It would make America unhappy and current leaders don’t have a lot of foresight.
I am talking about military not current folks....

Intercontinental range would cause issues perhaps, but not hypersonic vehicles

It's just that Iran has no incentive to give the tech unless you have something they want in return
 
. . . .
that guy was a rogue criminal who stole designs from URENCO then sold them on the black market to anyone who was interested

not quite the same thing is it
This is American version, du you support American point of view ?
 
. . . . .
Great job!

Just one more thing, add a nice nukehead to it to make it worthwhile.


Feelings are mutual, I was just kidding you after Qaher 313 I stop taking Iranians seriously.

At least, Iran made this mock up on its own, You whiteasskissing turkers of Turkey had to order your own mock up as a kit. LOLOLOL
