@brit__updates: Iran's Kheibar Shekan medium-range ballistic missile is drawing growing attention as analysts examine its potential impact on the ongoing US-Iran conflict. According to a report by Military Watch Magazine, the solid-fuel missile has become an increasingly significant challenge for US and allied missile defense systems due to its rapid launch capability, maneuverable re-entry vehicle, and reported ability to complicate interception efforts. The report also says Iran has increasingly combined ballistic missile attacks with drones and varied flight profiles to place greater pressure on air defense networks. The Kheibar Shekan has a reported range of up to 1,450 kilometers and can be launched from road-mobile transporter-erector-launchers, making it more difficult to target before launch. The report further argues that the missile's relatively low cost compared with Patriot, THAAD, and other interceptor systems creates a favorable cost-exchange ratio for Tehran. #Iran #KheibarShekan #Missiles #USMilitary #THAAD
