Zafar anti ship cruise missile

The Zafar missile is a short-range anti-vessel radar-guided cruise missile, which can target small and medium-sized targets with high precision .

The missile system can be installed on various types of vessels, he said, adding that the Zafar missile enjoys remarkable features like light weight, capability to repel electronic attacks, and high destructive power.

The Zafar missile loses altitude after being launched, and then cruises at low altitude in order to be hidden from sight of the enemy, and in the final stage identifies the target at a low altitude and destroys the target .

The Zafar missile system is a completely indigenized system, which was designed and manufactured by competent and skilled Iranian experts and engineers.

Nasr 1 anti ship cruise missile


Type : Anti ship missile

Weight :350 kg

Length : 3.5 m

Diameter : 0.28 m

Warhead : 150 kg time-delayed semi armour piercing high explosive

Engine : Solid rocket engine

Operational range : 35 km

Speed : 0.8 to 0.9 Mach

Guidance system : TV-homing , millimetre radar




Nasr-1 Is a domestically-manufactured Iranian short range anti ship missile capable of evading radar. It has the capability of destroying 1,500-tonne targets such as small warships like frigates. Nasr-1 missile can be launched from both inland bases and offshore military vessels, and is being modified to be fired from helicopters and submarines.

The missile has a cigarette shaped body with four large foldable fins attached to the middle part and four smaller ones attached to the end of the missile near the exhaust.

In December 2008, an Iranian naval forces successfully test-fired the surface-to-surface Nasr-1 during the final stage of "Unity 87" wargames in the Persian Gulf waters. Following the successful test firing, on 7 March 2010, Iran's defence minister announced a mass-production line of Nasr-1 missiles.

In early 2012, during Velayet-e 90 wargames, it was tested from land-based TELs.

Copy....Paste Nothing surprising here. with the defense systems GCC operate can detect and hunt down all Iranian junks at the first phase. Manipulation of fuel tanks for different range but same Korean technology.

Many people like you think Reverse engineering is copy and pasting , But its absolutely false because If you want to reverse engineer anything you'll have to have the prior knowledge and technology of that product . If it was copy pasting , nowadays every single country would have F-22 or the latest missiles , but you see , no one has .

Just have a look on Turkey . They've been producing F-16 in their soil for years but haven't been able to produce 1 independently without the main manufacturer's ( US ) support or Iran that has had F-16 , F-14 , F-5 - F-4 for nearly 4 decades but still cant produce the engine for them .

Iranian Hoot Torpedo

Russian VA-111 Shkval


Type : Super cavitation Torpedo

In service : 2006–present

Warhead : One

Speed : 100 m/s




Hoot (Persian: حوت‎; Whale) is an Iranian super cavitation torpedo that travels at approximately 360 km/h (220 mph), several times faster than a conventional torpedo . It was test-fired successfully from a surface ship against a dummy submarine during the Iranian military exercise "Great Prophet" on 2 April 2006 and 3 April 2006.

The official Iranian news agency IRNA claims the torpedo was produced and developed by the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps .

Most military and industry analysts have concluded that the Hoot is reverse engineered from the Russian VA-111 Shkval super cavitation torpedo which travels at the same speed but Iran hasn't verified that .

According to Reports , Hoot and VA-111 Shkval are the fastest torpedoes in the world .

Without Korean technology and help, Iran would not have the capabilities to produce anything. There is one superpower country still heavily depends on Russian technologies. Reveres engineering can be done through reassembly but it is not easy to be done for highly sophisticated tech such as engines, otherwise Iran would have already produce spare parts to it's jets.

Iran had cooperation with china several years ago but it ended cos of the US pressure , North Korea was a partner not technology supplier and there is no sign of cooperation in latest achievements . Its all on our own these days .
You're underestimating Iran , Iran is 1st in science production in ME and Iranians are the talented ones in the world . What you see today is not even half of Iran's potential cos Iran's got the most brain drains and the worst possible educational system . That's why we've got behind however our experts have reached great achievements .

10. Antiship ballistic missile :

Khalij e Fars ( PERSIAN GULF )

Khalij e Fars ( PERSIAN GULF ) Anti ship ballistic missile

Khalij e Fars Firing in Persian Gulf

Type : Anti-ship ballistic missile

In service : 2011–present

Manufacturer : Iran

Length : 8.86 m

Diameter : 0.61 m

Warhead : One

Engine : Solid (single stage)

Operational range : 300 km

Speed : 3 Mach


Khalij e Fars ( Persian : موشک خلیج فارس‎, "Persian Gulf" ) is a single-stage solid-propellant , supersonic Anti-ship quasi ballistic missile with a range of 300 km based on the Fateh-110 missile. It is equipped with a 650 kg explosive warhead which benefits from a combination of guidance systems to evade interception.

The missile was unveiled in Feb 2011 when the Commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari announced that it is being mass produced. Iranian Fars News agency released a footage of the missile hitting the target ship successfully . The missile was first tested during the Great Prophet 3 naval wargames in 2008. Israeli expert Uzi Rubin describes the missile a game changer if used against US carriers in straight of Hormouz .

There has been two other publicized tests of the missile. One occurred in July 2011 and the other in July 2012 . The later test also showed a footage taken by the missile's Electro-Optical seeker locked into the target.

This thread was created to show Iran's achievements in missile industry .

I tried to post information about all the known missiles and rockets that have been reserve engineered , designed or manufactured by Iranian experts .

First accept my apologies if I've forgotten anything and second please help this thread if you have any useful information , pictures or videos related to the topic .

Ok, we are just copying.What **** have Arabs done?Selling oil and buying defense systems and jet fighters is supposed to be achievements?Why are some people so stupid?

Shahin missiles

very good to see Iran progressing in this way..by the way aren't these two missiles similar??? i guess they are based on the same old soviet platform of SA-6

Its the reverse engineered version of the American MIM-23 Hawk .

Thanks S00R3NA for this useful thread. about ballistic missiles, i have read an article about difference between shahab 3 A with shahab 3 B that you didn't mention it.

you can read it here:
