Iran shows off long-range missile system with new warhead
2019-09-23
[ALMASDARNEWS] The Iranian military displayed its Khorramshahr long-range ballistic missile with a new warhead at a parade dedicated to the anniversary of the beginning of the 1980-1988 Iran-Iraq war, Fars news agency reported on Sunday.
"Death to Saddam! Death to America! Death to the Jooos! Death to 600,000 of our soldiers!"
The Iranian military also showcased domestic air defence system Bavar-373 and missile defense system Khordad-15 as well as 18 other ballistic missiles, the Fars news agency reported.

​Iran’s missile program has been receiving considerable international attention for many years.

The United States and a range of its allies view it as a violation of UN Security Council’s 2231 resolution that recommends Tehran refrain from creating long-range ballistic missiles, as their development heavily relies on the nuclear weapons program banned under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.

Who made the paint?
Lipstick on a pig.

#2  The answer is 'Yes'? An Iranian knock-off of a North Korean version of a Chinese licensed/pirated copy of the original Soviet Russian design... or it could be an original effort because Stranger Things Have Happenedâ„¢.
