If your talking about the 1st stage booster you can lighten the weight to increase payload or choose to instead increase speed of injection by a fraction regardless that 1st stage booster engine is NOT going to work in the vacuum of space regardless due to nozzle size! So being able to add the...
Military official especially Air Force official don't really like talking about technologies that aren't already public knowledge.
He only talked about OwJ and as for stealth in terms of design he only said they are looking into it for future designs so nothing beyond paper and CAD designs and...
Really do you need me to count the number of stages and engines and TVC liquid fuel engines on the Simorgh for you? My God! LOL!
And YES it is cheap and it will most definitely be under $1.4 Million USD
IDK what delusional world you've been living in but Iran's been mass producing the F-110...
Under 6 Million for research is really not that bad! and ONLY the 1st stage is from the MOD so the 2nd stage and up has nothing to do with the IRGC! And the 1st stage is based of the COSMOS SLV which is one of the more successful SLV's in the world and that hasn't failed yet!
I have no doubt...
No purchased Air Force would be able to go up against American F-22's in Air to Air combat! And that's the difference!
And if you can't touch them in the air the only option left is to hit them while they are on the ground which basically sums up Iran's current doctrine!
F-22's require how...
For hitting Europe 4,500km would be more than sufficient (From norther Iran to London is ~3700km) so we don't really need an ICBM for that!
As for Russia well the Americans have been putting missile defense across Europe for years now so the Russians by now know that with or without an Iranian...
If accurate then they have done an amazing job keeping the images of the missile classified! If they are talking about a launch within 4 months or so then the missile is already built and various stages have already been tested.
At this point what are they going to do? sanction our oil and assassinate our generals?
I think its about time Iran stops playing nice!
Every time they cross a line we should cross a line!
~4200km is what we need to hit Giego Garcia and every EU power so a Khoramshar booster + Salmon + 200lb guidance & control + 1000lb warhead and bam! And most importantly at a relatively affordable cost!
They can also use the salmon for Anti ship BM's and it's also a 1st step in having a viable...
This is actually the biggest news of the day! Hell even if the Zafar had reached orbital velocity, still this achievement is by far more important!
Add that to the Khoramshahr and Diego Garcia comes within reach for less than the cost of a tomahawk! As always the IRGC doesn't disappoint!!!!!
According to our laws Iran's supreme leader is by law "The commander in chief of Iran's Military" so yea barnameh moshaki is NOT under the control of the President however the president can still control MOD budget...
Also, the IRGC controls Iran's missile program and the IRGC aside from the...
I think Iran's media should be responsible for naming exactly every idiot that brought this up and every idiot that agrees to vote for it. I think their constituents should know exactly who these traitor are! It's flat out treason because they don't simply stop at nukes they are trying to make...
Someone going to him to get approval on a subject out of respect is NOT the same as Khamenei micro managing Iran!
Ahamid had and assigned his own budget and managed in his own way when it came to the space program just as Rohani managed in his own way and had his own budget.....
The idea...
No! It was the Rohani administration that broke up Iran's space program and restructured it into a bunch of smaller units under the communication ministry and it was again the Rohani administration who cut the budget for Iran's space program severely restricting the number of launches.... and...
Can't argue with that! If Iran's Space Program wasn't tampered with by the Rohani administration or if it was at least put under IRGC or MOD control they would have resolved the 2nd stage issue and had multiple successful sat launches with that 1st stage booster by now.....
From what I've seen...
