Iranian Missiles | News and Discussions

[TheImmortal]

Thanks bro!! I'm by no means in the slightest a military guru or anything of the sort, I just pulled together this conclusion based on what I've read and using basic facts and simple logic e.g: (BMs destroy Al-Udeid Airbase = No jets to fly + no communication center = no way of striking Iran).

The last figure of 120,000 was Collin Powell's estimate in a leaked E-Mail regarding Iranian BMs targeted at Israel. Can't confirm or deny. But then again bro, Hezbollah has 150,000 precision guided missiles (most of them Zolfaqhar).

Lol hezbollah doesn’t have 150,000 precision guided missiles. They have 100,000 rockets. Big difference.

For Hezbollah being guided or unguided makes little difference.

They fire them from Lebanese heights, into israeli cities, most of them lands in there . They have a variant of fateh 110 missiles supplied by Syria, called M-600
Also a few numbers of Scud-D is seen in their arsenal. Nearly 5000 of them are guided and mid range which can cover whole Israel lands.

as if Iran relies on North Korea regarding missiles technology
Iran many years ago surpassed them..

It is possible that the facility is developing only medium-range missiles, which Iran already possesses, or perhaps an unusually sophisticated space program.

Great, so they are actively testing a 70-90 ton solid fuel booster, sufficient for a ICBM. Sounds like the second stage of Shahid Terhrani Moghaddams SLV/ICBM... 5 years after the accident.

I recently saw a wall paining of him at the Kaj square in Tehran... great painting of this Pahlevan e Iranzamin.

The researchers say Shahrud’s 2017 test used a stand estimated to be 370 tons, suggesting the engine powered between 62 and 93 tons of thrust — enough for an intercontinental ballistic missile. Two as-yet-unused test stands are even larger.

Don't get something . the article says they test missile engine under the cover of nights to hide it.
Honestly you test missile engine at night if you want to show it to martian.

That painting is old and and need some serious maintenance.

I agree with you, especially the temperature difference of more than a thousand degrees generated by the rocket engine can easily be seen by the satellite thermal sensors.

the main question for me is why did it take them more than 7 years to find this site?

I think the more interesting thing is the timing. Now that United States pulls out of the deal all of sudden all sorts of intelligence breaks out regarding Iran's missiles and nuclear activities

It didn’t take 7 years to find this site, it took 7 years for a CIVILIAN academic researcher to find this site. You don’t know how long foreign intelligence agencies knew about it.

I understand what you mean, but if the government of the US or Israel found this site earlier, do not you think that they would tell it to everyone?

Why would they do that? Instead they would monitor the site to see how their adversary is progressing in ICBM technology.A foreign intelligence agency purpose is to gather intelligence.
