IRAN REPORTEDLY EXPANDS KHORRAMSHAHR-4 MISSILE RANGE TO 4,000 KM, RAISING CONCERNS OVER EUROPEAN MILITARY BASES
Iran has reportedly expanded the operational range of its Khorramshahr-4 ballistic missile, potentially bringing military targets across Europe within its reach, according to reports by Iran’s Press TV.
Separately, Israel’s Channel 15 reportedly disclosed intelligence suggesting that Iran has developed missiles with a range of up to 4,000 kilometres and is capable of producing approximately 50 long-range missiles per week. The reports appear to refer to the Khorramshahr-4 missile,
Iran’s three most prominent ballistic missile systems include the Khorramshahr-4, Kheibar Shekan and Sejjil.
The Sejjil is particularly notable for its reported speed, exceeding Mach 13 during certain phases of flight. Iran reportedly used the missile only once during the 40-day war, according to the account.
The reports have renewed questions about Iran’s long-range missile capabilities and the potential challenges they could pose to regional and international air defence systems.
