Iran to Double Range of Qadir Cruise Missile and Ready to Test-Fire Sayyad 3 Long-Range Missile.

The new defensive products included two cruise missiles named Qadir and Nasr-e Basir as well as an interceptor drone, Karrar 4, and another drone used for photogrammetry missions called Mohajer 4.

Qadir is a new generation of cruise missiles capable of destroying marine targets with high precision and power within the range of 300km. It can be fired from coasts and vessels both.

Nasr-e Basir marine cruise enjoys high agility and operational power with its central explorer warhead finding targets through a smart program, and it conducts its mission noise-free.

"These two types of missiles will be delivered to the Navy, while Qadir missiles will be upgraded to (create a new generation called) Moqtader missiles next year and its range will also be doubled," Dehqan said, adding that the two missiles are also resistant to electronic warfare.

Stressing that Iran is enjoying the best defense systems, he said, "We have test-fired Sayyad 2, a mid-range and high-altitude missile, and we will test-fire Sayyad 3 which is a long-range and high-altitude missile in the near future; hence, these two missiles will protect our skies at all altitudes against threats."

Sayyad 2 is a missile for mid-range and high-altitude air defense systems, designed based on the state-of-the-art technologies which can destroy different types of helicopters, drones and targets with small radar cross-section and high speed and maneuverability within its operational range.
