Iran Announces New Missile

November 27, 2007 · Filed Under Military, World News 

Iran announced Tuesday that it has produced a new missile called Ashura with a range of 1,200 miles.

Iran had developed a medium-range ballistic missile known called Shahab-3 with a range of 800 miles. Officials said in 2005 that the range of Shahab-3, meaning the shooting star, was increased to 1,200 miles.

It was not clear what the difference was between Ashura, the new missile, and the one announced in 2005. It’s also possible that the Iranians are just blowing smoke.
