Defence Current Affairs 11 November 2022 

Iran Develops Hypersonic Ballistic Missiles  

  • Iran’s Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Aerospace Force Brigadier General Amir-Ali Hajizadeh on Thursday said that the country has developed advanced hypersonic ballistic missiles capable of penetrating air defence systems.
  • Speaking on the 11th death anniversary of General Hassan Tehrani Moqaddam, Hajizadeh said that IRGC produced advanced hypersonic ballistic missiles to pass through developed air defence systems.
  • Referring to the details of the hypersonic missile, he highlighted that the missile has a high speed and can manoeuvre both in space and out of it. It targets the enemy’s anti-missile systems and is a major generational leap in the missile-producing sector, he underlined.
  • Both Iran and Russia are targeted by stringent sanctions — Iran after the US unilaterally pulled out of the 2015 nuclear deal between Tehran and world powers, and Russia since it invaded Ukraine in February.
  • The two countries have responded to the sanctions by boosting cooperation in key areas to help prop up their economies.

Stalled nuclear talks

  • A hypersonic missile is maneuverable, making it harder to track and defend against.
  • While countries like the United States have developed systems designed to defend against cruise and ballistic missiles, the ability to track and take down a hypersonic missile remains a question.
