Iran's space launchers family

Iran is currently working on the most extensive family of space launchers in the Middle East, making it the fourth space faring superpower. Undisputed.

But only little has been disclosed. Indeed it takes an average of 2 to 3 decades before any of these projects can yield any concrete result.

Today we are nearing the end of the research developmental cycle, as the I.R.I. is marking its 40th anniversary.

Just like the other space superpowers, soon we will see that Iran teamed with North Korea, with its long term strategy will be able to field any satellite systems into any orbits, and conducted outer space exploration, including a manned long term presence...in the form of an orbital space laboratory (of the size of Salyut-class/Tiangong-2-class).

So stay tuned for more updates!

In an interview with CBS on Sunday, Trump said Kim "has a chance to have North Korea be a tremendous economic behemoth. It has a chance to be one of the great economic countries in the world."

Sneak peek from the North Korean side:

Updated artistic illustration:
  • 1. A mobile launcher for the possible Kwangmyongsong-5 satellite, I designated as Unha-5 SLV for clarity. Itself an adaptation of the Hwasong-15 ICBM, and also the second stage of the Unha-9 SLV.
  • 2. A manned single-seater suborbital E1 capsule, atop its launcher derived from the Unha-5 SLV.
  • 3. The Unha-9 SLV.
  • 4. The manned Unha-9 SLV with an orbital version of the single seater E1 capsule.
  • 5. And improved Unha-9, I designated as Unha-9B, with a larger and more powerful second stage, maybe cryogenic stage.
  • 6. And improved Unha-9 with four liquid propellant strap-on boosters, doubling the total liftoff thrust. I designated the Unha-18 for clarity. Associated with the orbital 3-seaters F1 capsule.
  • 7. The Qaem solid propellant SLV. Korean name still unknown.
  • 8. The heavy-lift Unha-20.
  • 9. The ultra-heavy-lift solid propellant SLV. I designated as Unha-27 for clarity.

Upcoming space launch...

By starting with an orbital launch attempt in 2022, only to avoid contempt in face of China's Shenzhou-5 outstanding achievement, and moreover with a multi-seaters mission, India has set the bar too high, thus leaving the fourth place as a spacefaring nation to North Korea! The DPRK's space agency NADA that is simply attempting a suborbital launch with a single astronaut might succeed within one year!

Indeed, neither the liquid propellant rocket needed to further test-launch the high altitude abort system of the Gaganyaan capsule nor the Indian orbital space launch vehicle are even built. On the countrary, the North Korean suborbital launcher has already been produced, only awaiting the order of Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un to be launched with a dummy! Just another hint leaked on February 6th, 2019, in the North Korean media, on the occasion of the North Korean New Year!

No need to add that India will only end up at the sixth place at best, even behind Iran's ISA, that uses the same technologies and hardwares as NADA, the Hwasong-15 SLV might in this case be replaced with a Safir-1 SLV.

Analysis: Hint on the upcoming space launch

Following a previous picture revealing a Hwasong-15 SLV painted on a kid's kite, the latest image taken on 6 February 2019, during the North Korean New Year, shows another kite in the hand of a children, with a Unha-9 SLV, and not flying in the sky.
Only this time, the children are all jumping toward the sky, unmistakable reference to a manned spaceflight! Indeed, this only echoes a some ~30 years old painting of an astronaut rising to the sky, in the Samjiyon children's palace.

I'm not sure about that. They're obviously extremely picky & careful about who they allow into these programs. They also most likely keep them under surveillance. They obviously double check everything, if not triple check to make sure that there is no sabotage or infiltration.

The first satellite, it launched fine, the last stage, releasing the satellite into orbit just failed. The last launch, I'm not sure exactly what went wrong, however, these kinds of things can happen, especially when you're pushing the boundaries of science & technology.

Remember Iran is doing it pretty much all alone, without any significant outside help. Many countries like Saudi Arabia, they pay the Europeans to do it. Keep in mind. the west has been in the space game for more than 50 years now, Iran just started. I'm sure they'll get it right, it just takes time.

I think some recent problems are probably related to some infiltrated agents in the ranks who are asked to do whatever they can on these days as it is the 40th of the most successful Muslim nation to compromise the whole achievements in the eyes of light minded people... Is it really that hard to manipulate both Payam and Dusti and any other launches by traitors?

Safir-2-e-Payam: Analysis

Gone are the days when the U.S. could threaten the Islamic Republic of Iran with a blunt military invasion.

And as of 2018, Iran has already secured a credible deterrence against any direct act of aggression.

This is why the U.S. is now mostly using indirect strategies of proxy war against such military powerhouses, as demonstrated with the 2011 Jasmin Revolution targeting Syria, Libya and all the Middle East, the 21 February 2014 coup against Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych, and of course the botched 15 July 2016 coup d'état, thwarted by Turkish President Erdogan.

For this, no need to reach the American continent. Iran's IRGC has the ability to strike at the Empire's Achilles' heel, that is at the U.S. 20,000 orbital military satellites, and all the related ECHELON ground facilities.

Any salvo of Moksong-2 ICBMs (militarized Safir-2) could easily take down most of the U.S. space satellites with a single EMP blow.

In addition, Moksong-2 ICBMs are able to reach key facilities of the GEODSS, an important piece of U.S. Strategic Command in the Indian Ocean at some 3,800 km south-eastwards.

▲ Track of the January 15, 2019, Safir-2-e-Payam launch.


The track of the January 15, 2019, Safir-2-e-Payam launch has clearly demonstrated Iran's IRGC ballistic deterrence's vital credibility, putting the U.S. Diego Garcia GEODSS within its range.

This is what the U.S. military has stated recently regarding such space tracking facilities (in this case Cobra Dane, Alaska):

December 2018

According to the data, Cobra Dane tracks 3,300 space objects each day that cannot be tracked by any other radar system. Air Force officials noted that when Cobra Dane is not operationally available for space surveillance for short periods (less than 24 hours), they can overcome that downtime without losing track of those unique objects. However, officials told us that it would take six months to reacquire all of the small space objects that Cobra Dane tracks, if they encounter any significant scheduled or unscheduled downtime.

And the unconcealed greatest dismay and uneasiness following this latest successful ballistic test launch:

U.S. State Department

Robert Palladino
Deputy Spokesperson
Washington, DC
February 7, 2019

In defiance of the international community, the Iranian regime continues to develop and test ballistic missiles, including a reported second failed space launch in less than a month. Space launch vehicles use technologies that are virtually identical and interchangeable with those used in ballistic missiles, including in Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles (ICBMs). This attempted launch furthers Iran’s ability to eventually build such a weapon that threatens our allies.

Indeed the U.S. is only a paper tiger, a colossus with feet of clay.

Iran has the capability to simply put an end to the century-long Pax Americana, within an hour of conflict, thus starting the dawn of the Pax Persiana. At the discretion of its Supreme Leader, should He decide to do so, and at the time of His choosing.

Destination Moon

The North Korean Lunar Exploration Program (조선달탐사: NKLEP)'s Phase I is nearing the final launch preparation stage. Soon an Unha-9 SLV will carry NADA's first lunar orbiter.

It is possible that the safir vehicle that failed recently was the new 1C variant of safir that was announced back in 2016/2017. If i recall correctly the major change was increased first stage thrust of 390 Kn vs the current 340 Kn of safir 1B.
