Iran says domestically produced ‘fully smart’ cruise missiles delivered to naval base
2023-12-25
Real or the usual Iranian vapourware?
[IsraelTimes] Iran’s navy says it added domestically produced sophisticated cruise missiles to its arsenal, Iranian state TV reports.

The report says both Talaeieh and Nasir cruise missiles have arrived at a naval base near the Indian Ocean in the southern Iranian port of Konarak, some 1,400 kilometers (850 miles) southeast of the capital, Tehran.

Navy chief Adm. Shahram Irani says the Talaeieh has a range of more than 1,000 kilometers (620 miles) and called it "fully smart." Irani says the cruise missile is capable of changing targets during travel.
"Fully Smart" = The Fredo of Iranian Cruise Missiles, and it wants respect!
He says the Nasi has a range of 100 kilometers (62 miles) and can be installed on warships.

From time to time Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
announces the test firing, production and commissioning of new military equipment that cannot be independently verified. The country says it has a stock of various kinds of missiles with ranges up to 2,000 kilometers (1250 miles), capable of reaching Israel and US bases in the region.

The announcement comes amid a wave of drone and missile attacks by Yemen
...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of...
’s Iran-backed Iran's Houthi sock puppets
...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth. Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The legitimate Yemeni government has accused the them of having ties to the Iranian government. Honest they did. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to Americaâ„¢, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews They like shooting off... ummm... missiles that they would have us believe they make at home in their basements. On the plus side, they did murder Ali Abdullah Saleh, which was the only way the country was ever going to be rid of him...
rebels on a vital shipping lane in the Red Sea, which they say is a response to the Israel-Hamas
...the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,...
war in the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...

#5  The missile guidance will prove as reliable as their first try at centrifuges. Hopefully, they shoot a lot of them at once.

#3  In the linked article, i read the following: "Irani (sp) says the cruise missile is capable of changing targets during travel."

So no more accurate than the rockets Hamas fired?

#2  Given the average Islamist intelligence, I suspect you're right Grom.

The 'smart missiles' would not be any smarter.

But my real question is what id propelling the 'cruse missiles'?

#1  A fully smart missile would loop and hit wherever the Ayatollahs meet in Teheran.
