Military Knowledge: Fattah Hypersonic Ballistic Missile
The Fattah missile is the first example of Iranian hypersonic missiles that was unveiled in a special ceremony in Tehran on June 6. This missile, with a speed of more than 13 Mach in the midcourse phase and a speed higher than 5 Mach in the terminal phase and also with the ability to maneuver at a distance of 100 km before hitting the target, is considered a very big leap in Iran’s missile arsenal. In fact, the Fattah missile is a very advanced MaRV (Maneuverable Reentry Vehicle) ballistic missile that has tried to maintain a speed of 5 Mach or more throughout the maneuver and impact to be classified as a hypersonic missile.
