Article from New York Times about development of solid fuel missiles at Shahroud facility

Estimate by Michael Elleman from 2018

"although it would likely take Iran half a decade or more to finish building the plant and infrastructure, train the plant operators, complete facility start-up and fully develop a new, large solid-fuel engine powerful enough to propel an ICBM. Flight-trials of the notional, solid-fuel ICBM might extend the timeline by another three to five years."



Your opinion: what kind of solid fuel ICBM or SLV Iran is developing in Shahrud?

Is it an SLV that will launch an Iranian astronaut into space?

==================


conclusion
this is for all Iranian members who think Pakistan with tactical Atom bomb and to Saudi Arabia with with tactical Atom bomb can really do anything or get way surviving respond

and Iranian members who think America just attack Iran and U.S continental mainland be safe and nothing will happen


so the judgemnt is up on your self they cant be more clear then that

If we assume Armscontrolwonk experts are right and Iran is developing a 2.5 meter diameter engine with a thrust of 90 tons, then Iranian solid fuel ICBM can weight 60 tons and possibly have three stages: 1st 2.5 meter diameter, 2nd 1.9 m diameter and 3rd 1.5m diameter.

If Michael Elleman estimate of 5 years is right then this ICBM can be tested as SLV by 2023

Is it an SLV that will launch an Iranian astronaut into space?

No !

 

[GWXP]

No !

For launching an astronaut Iran needs to make an SLV with 3 ton payload to LEO. Iran claims to launch an astronaut in 5 years. How Iran will make such an SLV?
Maybe Simorgh with more efficient engines from Khorramshahr missile + 4 large solid fuel boosters?

There are also some reports about 80ton liquid fuel engine, developed by North Korea, being developed with Iranian participation. So maybe they will design an additional stage for Simorgh with that 80 ton engine + add solid fuel boosters----and this will be a launcher with 3tons payload

I guess such a launcher will be a three stage liquid fuel rocket with large diameter solid fuel boosters in the first stage

They built this slv ten years ago, it name is Qhaem its 4 stage all solid fuel with 4 strap on. its much more bigger than simorgh or khoramshaher.
