Iran's army has announced advancements in its missile program, aiming to enhance its capabilities in potential future conflicts with Israel and the United States. According to the Tasnim news agency, an Iranian army representative stated that the country is working to increase the range and speed of its missiles, as well as improve their accuracy. "In the course of this war, we came to the conclusion that we must increase the range of our missiles, and we are now working in this direction," the statement read. "Very good work has been done regarding the speed of missiles and the accuracy of their hits. The next generations of our missiles, which will be adopted, will possess these capabilities to an even greater extent."
The military official highlighted the effectiveness of missiles used in recent conflicts, including strikes by ground forces on enemy bases in Kuwait and naval attacks on ships. The Iranian army intends to further boost missile speed and extend their flight range to up to 1,000 kilometers, citing the need to reach targets located further from the coast. This development follows reports that Iranian authorities are considering responses to potential large-scale strikes by the U.S., with discussions about adopting a tougher strategy that could target more than just American interests. Additionally, Iran has reportedly instructed allied forces in Lebanon, Yemen, and Iraq to prepare for a coordinated response should major U.S. attacks resume.
