IRAN BOMBER: Iran unveils 'Khaibar-buster' missile 'capable of hitting American bases in the region and targets within Israel

Iran has unveiled a new missile that is capable of hitting nearby US bases and targets within its arch-enemy Israel.

The Khaibar-buster, a reference to a Jewish castle overrun by Muslim warriors led by Prophet Mohammed in the early days of Islam, has a range of 900 miles and runs on solid fuel, state media reported.

The missile has high accuracy, is manufactured completely domestically, and can defeat missile shield systems, the report said, although this information has not been independently verified.

Armed forces chief of staff Mohammad Bagheri described it as a strategic, 'long-range' missile.

He said during the unveiling: 'The enemies of the Revolution and the Islamic Republic do not understand anything but the language of power and force'.

It was unveiled during a visit to a surface-to-surface missile base of the Guards' air force, with the chief of the aerospace department Amirali Hajizadeh present.

Israel's closest point to Iran is 620 miles away, and Iran has missiles that can travel up to 1,250 miles.

Iran has the largest arsenal of missiles in the Middle East.

On December 24, the Islamic republic fired 16 ballistic missiles to conclude military drills described by generals as a warning to Israel.

Bagheri said on Monday that Iran was 'self-sufficient in terms of military equipment', noting it could become one of the world's largest arms exporters if US sanctions were lifted.

The International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) says Iran has about 20 types of ballistic missiles as well as cruise missiles and drones.

Their capabilities vary, with the Qiam-1 having a range of 500 miles and the Ghadr-1 able to reach 1,100 miles.


The IISS, a London-based think tank, says Iran's current priority is to increase the accuracy of its missiles.

The report comes as negotiations continue in Vienna to revive Tehran's tattered nuclear deal with world powers.

Earlier in January Iran tested an engine for a solid-fuel rocket designed to launch satellites.

Satellite carriers usually use liquid fuel but solid-fuel rockets can be adapted for mobile launchers that can be driven anywhere on a major road or rail system. Pure solid-fuel rockets are mostly associated with ballistic missiles systems.

Iran keeps spending heavily on weaponry rather than improving their country...

Dead countries like Assyria, Ammon, Moab, Edom, Babylon, Medo Persia, etc.... Will forever bow to Israel (when they finally repent, ) and to the greatest country in the world, God's own country.... God bless the USA

Israel always fighting wars.... I really wonder if where they are is really the "Land of milk and honey ".....

Iran manufactured that weapon domestically i.e from start to finish,they made use of their own resources. Iran is not a developed country, but they are almost there. Majority of their people are literate and they are far better than the acclaimed giant of Africa. We still import transistor radios and mobile phones. These are what secondary school students in Asia make. We are in trouble in this country.

And Ur country is spending on what?

Where did they say "the missiles can strike Israel and US bases"? Give me a direct quote. If you cannot, then change the headline because it's misleading. Western media's and their propaganda

Continue deceiving yourselves until US and Israel wipeout the whole nation within a minute

Empty boast

This was exactly the same way Iraq's Saddam Hussein was making empty boasts that his country had nuclear weapons.

This eventually led to Iraq being invaded by forces led by the United States...they found no weapons of mass destruction!

Its funny how this people celebrate technology the west and Isreal already have years ago,real military advancement is kept secret for the d-day.
Threatening nuclear powers with those baseless missile claims is not only funny but stupid.

Baby missile. The one Buhari dey use hit us for naija na their father ooo.

Iran again, well they should just thank their God that trump and Benjamin are no longer in power

Yes na... while their male counterpart are happily patrolling their streets with the severed heads of young females in the name of honor killing... US and Co. is their problem. they should continue.

Stupid Failed country and the next terrorist failure which I was unfortunate to be in.

Sometimes when I look at humans I wonder what the creator was thinking.

Peace cost Nothing, but they choose war... countries with billions of poor citizen will rather spend $billions building weapons instead of improving her citizens lives.

by the way, Who Am I mine to question the perfect creator, war started in heaven before human creation... we are all created in his LIKENESS.

He should have just stop creation at the 6th day before the humans part, now they have and still destroying everything he created

That war is never good, of that we all know. It destroys the very base of humanity; and yet, countries go to war. They fight over invisible borders and materialistic values, they fight over things that should not matter, over an Earth that they don’t love as their own. They fight the rich man’s war, to appease his hunger for power and money, and they destroy generations and generations of values and culture. They sow the seeds of mistrust and insecurity, and make a mockery of the term human rights. And yet, there is war. And there is constant, unrelenting fear.

.

Israel and the US have weapons that can wipe Iran off the face of the earth. Iran should stop making noise over this their children toy.

Please what is Lagos to Iran?


Make them no go misfire ooo


Ok we are safe

They emphasize science and technology and they have very powerful universities ,their scientist write a lot of papers in journals .

Self defence

The biggest mistake Americans made was to vote against Trump and elect a weak man

Vanity upon vanity all is?

We will see how far it will go or last!

Biden should take ds boy out like they neutralized the Iranian terror general
