Iran says its new Fattah missile can evade anti-ballistic missile systems from the U.S. and Israel and has a range of nearly 900 miles.
However, the initial claims about the capabilities of the missile could not be independently verified.
The missile’s unveiling comes about two weeks after Iran debuted the latest model of its infamous, liquid-fueled Khorramshahr ballistic missile. "One of the prominent characteristics of this missile is its ability to evade radar detection and penetrate enemy air defense systems, thanks to its low radar signature," Defense Minister Gen. Mohammad Reza Ashtiani said at the time.

Iranian military officials claim the missile, the Khorramshahr-4, can strike within a range of 1,240 miles with a 3,300-pound warhead. "Iran’s modifications to the Khorramshahr are proof positive that the IRGC can walk and chew gum at the same time. They can refine shorter-range precision-strike systems as well as longer-range nuclear capable ones," Behnam Ben Taleblu, a senior fellow and Iran expert at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, told Fox News Digital.
