Khorramshahr multi warhead ballistic missile

You guys should know the diameter of the warhead you think is being used on this missile. Then see if three of those warheads will fit on this missile's alleged dia of 1.4-1.5 meters or not.
The warhead will need shielding and can't come down without it as such misses with 2000 Km range.
Because these missiles rise to altitudes o at least 300 - 400 Kilometers and then come down towards target. At the time o Re-entering atmosphere the warhead is traveling at about Mach-13 (Re-Entry speed of our Shaheen-2). T that speeds atmospheric friction is too much and warhead needs shedding and hence the additional size and weight.


boss they can use smaller rv's as they don't have nuclear loads (yet)... but they are perfecting the tech which is great
 
.
if you had slightest of knowledge about the history and relation and long term strategic plan of both Iran and Russia , you wouldn't say this ...

Russia doesn't wanted a unpredictable nuclear Muslim country which is capable to target her main cities with nuclear missile ...

I do have knowledge of the history of Russia and Iran thank you. But guess what? times change. Russia is in a weak position at this time in history. It has virtually no strategic ally (China is more of a convenient mutal ally....China is more powerful than Russia right now globally) and has been boxed in by NATO and US. It has missile defense shields right on its border.

This is the result of failed Russian and Soviet policies, since the fall of the Soviet Union Russia has seen its power continuously decline and has been forced to briefly demonstrate power against old satellite states (Ukraine, Georgia) and to show it is still a relevant global power (Syria).

This is due to misconception and ignorance that Russia could somehow be seen as equal in the eyes of US and NATO, they were wrong. They were so desperate to be treated as equals by the US that they isolated themselves from other non-west aligned countries. Instead the US used them as a means to an end. Putin finally realized this with the Ukraine fiasco. He realized that NATO is expanding and that Russia is being boxed in...the West does not seek equal footing it seeks domination.

That is why your seeing Russia support of North Korea right now when traditionally Russia would try to appease the West for concessions.

Furthermore, You cannot deny the hand that China and Russia have had in assisting Iran's ballistic/cruise missile program in the early stages.

And your claim that Russia doesn't want an "unpredictable" Muslim country having ICBM capability is nonsense. First of all Iran is not "unpredictable" and second of all Pakistan already has nukes and is way more unstable than Iran.

Lastly, in terms of threat assessment, Russia could turn Iran into an inhabitable country for next 100 years if Iran were to ever think about using nuclear weapons against Russia. Russia has both first and second strike capability. And lastly Iran is not a nuclear power and probably won't be for the next quarter century at least.

In conculsion, Russia has more significant matters than to worry about a rising Iran. While historically Russia and Iran have been rivals, times are changing and the weakening of Russia on the global stage and the rise of NATO and US on its borders is causing the kremlin to reassess how it interacts with its last remaining allies or risk becoming further isolated.

It seems that this video has few seconds more at end.
and at that extra few seconds at end is clear that the warhead hit the target
watch after 1:23
Someday our military will release such detailed videos of our missile tests. All we get is Sime out of focus short video.

yeah , Russia doesn't accept to sell Su-30 ( 4 gen fighter ) to Iran and tortured Iran for S-300 , but they are helping Iran to make strategic missiles which can target it soil ... some times you just need see simple fact in simple way to make right judgment ...

You want to say Iran and NK are nothing with Russia and china , so you making story ... you guys are fooling yourselves ...

Inshallah bro

What you see in that video belongs to 2015-2016 test. An other one is on the way with bigger dia Almost 3.5m and solid fueled one. It's developed but not officially unveiled like Kurrashahr due to our conservatism in military affairs. We always have a surprise fr Israelis and American military bases.
Saudi clowns are not a target unless Americans use their soil to attack us.

Some of your points are valid but some of it is just convincing yourself and some other parts are just to make your story right... Russia is simply a neighbor to Iran and because they are neighbors and because they both have strategic interests in opposing West and US in particular they seem to have common direction in few fields. Overall, Russia sees Iran as a potential rival, this is why she is so cautious with strategic and semi-strategic know how transfers. They can easily help Turkey with S-400, Egypt and others with latest weaponry systems but never Iran as they see these nations not capable of becoming a threat to Russia militarily. Russia only sells weapons to two categories. Either are no potential to become big threat (Turkey, Egypt) or already are very strong and beyond limit (china)... When some talk about the possibility of Iran receiving strategic help from China and Russia, they just make their desired stories... Iran asked Russia for old 4 gen fighters... they won't sell it... S-400... won't sell it... Russia has a history of back stabbing with Iran... We bought 3 Kilo class subs and Iran was afraid to let them get to Russia for overhaul... u can guess why!

What Iran has is its own local scientists and tech plus some black market components that eventually are used to short cut the mastering process.

Iran is all alone... All Iranian allies an friends are smaller than Iran... Iran has no big brother...

Khorramshahr - A Quantum Leap In Iranian Missile Technology

Saturday, September 23, 2017



The recent Khorramshahr unveiling at the parade, the IRGC Commander Hajizadeh's statements, and the test footage have given us a raft of information and clues.

For the full analysis and blog post, please visit the link below:

UPDATE

A video has emerged on Twitter showing the warhead separation from the missile body, taken by the onboard cameras.


upload_2017-9-23_16-33-38.png


As you can see 3 of the squares turn blue and say "loss". I think this means the top left square is showing the missile body falling back from the warhead, the camera in the top left being attached to the warhead itself. This indicates that the power supply is in the warhead itself, and when cut off from the missile body, the cameras stop working. This is good, as it proves there is very likely a terminal guidance system. A turn is also made by the warhead, pointing the business end towards the direction of travel.

It had to be launched at a steep angle , sharp trajectory:

You want to say Iran and NK are nothing with Russia and china , so you making story ... you guys are fooling yourselves ...

Who has told you that Russia won't sell SU-30? Babak from twitter? We don't know the terms of the deal. But at the very least Iran wants production license in Iran. Maybe Russia is not willing to offer that.

Second of all does Iran even have the money for a major arms deal? Look around everything it is buying is being financed or having to loan from another institution. Furthermore, how serious is Iran even about upgrading its air force? Up till early 2000's Iran could have bought A LOT of things from Russia including a brand new airforce. Never materialized.

And the S-300 Deal is from precisely the time period when Russia was appeasing the West like I mentioned prior. Times have changed. Even Iran generals said Russia offered S-400 but they rejected it.

And no one says that Russia is building missiles for Iran, my point was that Russia could have supplied blueprints or technicians to North Korea to help it close bottlenecks in development and subsequently North Korea shared information via Iran on new design.

And again no one said that North Korea and Iran are nothing without China/Russia. You are just ignorant and fail to accept that both countries got help on their missile programs.

Some of your points are valid but some of it is just convincing yourself and some other parts are just to make your story right... Russia is simply a neighbor to Iran and because they are neighbors and because they both have strategic interests in opposing West and US in particular they seem to have common direction in few fields. Overall, Russia sees Iran as a potential rival, this is why she is so cautious with strategic and semi-strategic know how transfers.

Iran is all alone... All Iranian allies an friends are smaller than Iran... Iran has no big brother...

Again no solid proof that Russia won't sell Iran 4th gen fighters especially considering most of the region is loaded up on 4th gen fighters and Israel will have 5th gen soon. 4th gen fighters are probably not "game changers" especially if limited numbers.

Iran is not serious about funding its airforce and the amount of planes required to overhaul its airforce in a significant way raises questions about if they even have the money to fund such an acquisition.

Furthermore, Russia came in to syria for a variety of reasons including self interest. But if Russia did not come into Syria at the request of Solemani and Quds....at best Assad would have kept the coastal areas and Damascus and at worst would have lost everything. So if weakening Iran was Russia's first and most important interest they never would have entered Syria and at worst lost a antique small naval base. Iran is now much more powerful having won the Syria Civil war. It will reap rewards for its backing from Assad and will have solidified gains across the Middle East.

So again times change...now does this mean Russia and iran are going to best friends and Russia is going to give fancy toys to Iran for free? No, that's not how the world of geopolitics gets played.

Furthermore, my point was that Russia could have played a part in North Korea development and subsequently from NK shared information with Iran due to them being close on missile development. I didn't imply (or mean to) say that Russia came to Iran and magically offered them advanced missile tech. The more likely route is some form of assistance to Korea that somehow made its way back to Iran. Again I acknowledge that this could be completely false, not presenting it as fact. The purpose was to open discussion on the fast track of development.

Iran DM Gen Hatami: Khorramshahr IRBM ballistic missile, guided until target, penetrate ABM حاتمی
Defense Minister Army Brigadier General Hatami: Khorramshahr IRBM ballistic missile can be guided until the "moment of destroying the target" and it can avoid and penetrate Anti-ballistic missile shield

Minister Says Iran’s New Ballistic Missile ‘Strategic Weapon’
Iran’s new homegrown ballistic missile that was unveiled on Friday can be guided through the final moments of engagement with the target, Defense Minister Brigadier General Amir Hatami said, describing it as a “strategic missile” at Iran’s disposal.
In comments on Saturday, General Hatami said that its remarkable operational range and unique features have made Khorramshahr a very agile missile.
The strategic missile can cross the enemy’s air defense zone and could be guided from the launch to the moment it hits the target, he added
http://tn.ai/1527647

If it can guided to moment of impact, we're talking about basically the firepower of 3 emad missiles in one in simple terms right? Is it still clear if their are 3 warheads in Khoramshahr? 600lbs or 600kg each?

A dream come true if these can be smacked off of submarines
