Iran has developed and adopted a new Paveh hypersonic missile. The range of its flight is 1650 kilometers, which endangers almost all points in the Middle East, reports Reuters.
The new rocket can reach speeds in excess of Mach 12-13. It also has an engine that turns on when it approaches the target – 300-400 kilometers. This allows Iran’s new arsenal to break through air and missile defense systems.
Last fall, Tehran announced the expansion of its missile program. The development of such weapons is defensive and deterrent.

Earlier, Glavny Regionalny wrote that Iran denied reports of joint construction of a drone production plant with Russia.
