In the Operation True Promise II, the Islamic Republic of Iran Armed Forces launched 200 ballistic and hypersonic missiles to pound the positions of the Israeli regime in occupied territories of Palestine.
Fattah-2 missiles are the latest version of hypersonic missiles developed in Iran. This sort of missile is made up of a combination of hypersonic glide vehicles (HGV) and hypersonic cruise missiles (HCM), which has unique features. It seems that the Fattah-2 missile is still in development and more versions will be manufactured in the future.
The range of the next version of the Iranian Fattah hypersonic ballistic missile will be extended to 2,000 kilometers, commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps Aerospace Force, who developed the missile, announced on June 24.
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.
ISWNews Analysis Group – The “Fattah” hypersonic missile is the latest strategic achievement of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC)’s Aerospace Force, which has been unveiled on Tuesday morning in the presence of Iranian president and the commander-in-chief of the IRGC.
