Iran has developed the most powerful and diverse ballistic missile program in the Middle East. It constitutes a fundamental element of the national defense doctrine and serves as an instrument of regional power projection. Over the past decades, Iran’s military and political leadership has invested enormous resources in creating a self-sufficient missile industry. This sector compensates for the technological lag in traditional weapons systems, particularly the air force, which has long been constrained by international sanctions.
The evolution of Iran’s missile arsenal reflects a transition from simply purchasing and reverse-engineering Soviet models of the 1950s to developing complex, high-precision systems. Modern designs utilize solid propellant, guided warheads, and elements of hypersonic technology.
