Irans IRGC developing hypersonic cruise missiles: Chief Commander #IndiaNEWS #International
Tehran, Feb 26 (IANS) A top Iranian military commander has said that the countrys Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) is developing hypersonic cruise missiles.
IRGCs Chief Commander Hossein Salami made the remarks in an address to the closing ceremony of a national festival, noting Iran aims to develop high-speed cruise missiles which can fly at a low altitude, Xinhua news agency reported, citing Irans official news agency IRNA.
Commenting on Irans other military capabilities, Salami said, We can track satellites from the earth using radars and hit ships moving thousands of kilometers away from us.
In remarks during a televised program on Thursday, Commander of the IRGCs Aerospace Division Amir-Ali Hajizadeh said Iran has developed a new long-range cruise missile named Paveh that can travel a distance of up to 1,650 km.
In November last year, Hajizadeh said Iran has built a hypersonic ballistic missile capable of penetrating all missile defence systems, according to Irans Press TV network.
