Iran's Most Dangerous Missile Is Getting Even Deadlier

The Kheybar Shekan ballistic missile, one of the main weapons in Iran's arsenal, is proving increasingly difficult to neutralize, as Tehran improves the way it uses it to attack American targets in the Middle East.

According to US officials cited by the Wall Street Journal, Iran is combining different flight trajectories, maneuvers and speeds to confuse air defense systems and increase the chance that missiles will penetrate.

Although most of the missiles were intercepted by the United States and its allies, some managed to hit their targets, officials said.

Unlike older Iranian missiles, which require time to refuel before launch, the Kheibar Shekan uses solid fuel, which allows it to be transported and launched quickly from mobile vehicles, making it more difficult for American or Israeli aircraft to detect and destroy it.

Military experts say that some variants of the missile are equipped with a small engine at the front, which allows them to change direction in the final phase of flight, when approaching the target at speeds of around Mach 5.

In addition to ballistic missiles, Iran is also simultaneously using high-speed attack drones and other less sophisticated missiles, with the aim of overwhelming air defense systems.

According to US officials, since the resumption of fighting, Iran has repeatedly struck areas where US troops are stationed at military bases in the Middle East, as well as radars that support air defense systems in the region.

"I think this shows that Iran is learning and looking for ways to hit us," said former commander of the United States Central Command (CENTCOM), retired General Joseph Votel.

According to American and Israeli estimates, before the start of the war, Iran possessed about 2,500 medium-range ballistic missiles, including the Kheibar Shekan.

Although some production facilities have been destroyed, experts believe Tehran can continue assembling missiles from components stored in underground bases.

Iranian strategy expert Nicole Grajewski estimates that the missile has become Iran's main weapon due to its low production cost, flexibility in use, and effectiveness on the battlefield.

Analysts point out that each use in combat gives Iran new data to improve tactics and increase the missiles' ability to evade air defense systems.
