Tehran : Iran successfully test-fired Wednesday its 2,000-kilometer range Shihab III missile, carrying a traditional warhead.
“Al-Aalam” satellite channel broadcast live images of the missile launch, saying that the warhead weighed one ton and the range could be extended to 2,500 kilometers in the future.
It quoted Iranian Revolutionary Guard Air Force Commander Hussein Salami as saying that “the missile can hit targets within Israel, and also the US military bases in the region in the event that Iran is attacked.”
Iran also launched medium-range and long-range missiles — Fateh, Zilzal, and Shihab I, II, and III — as part of its military maneuvers conducted around the Persian state with the aim of hiking combat capabilities.
