    Jesus, that's fast.

    These probably can't really even be stopped, unless caught shortly after launch...

    "Ballistic missiles, particularly intercontinental ballistic missiles
    (ICBMs), travel at high speeds, often reaching speeds of 7 km/s or more
    (around Mach 20) during their mid-course and terminal phases. This is equivalent to roughly 25,000 km/h or 15,500 mph. During the boost phase,
    when the missile's engines are firing, the speed is typically lower, but
    it rapidly increases as the missile accelerates."

    ...A.I. claims that Iranian ICBM at Israel would be Mach 7-12.

    Do you have any info on the name of the missiles Iran is using, esp. for ICBMs, TT? That way we could try to figure its capabilities.

    I wonder if they have any multiple warhead missiles (MIRVs)?



    According to AI, Iran missiles, starting from fastest (hope it formats
    right):

    Fattah Hypersonic Ballistic Mach 13-15 1,400 km
    Sejjil MRBM Mach 7-8 2,000 km
    Khorramshahr MRBM Mach 7 2,000 km
    Qiam-1 SRBM Mach 5-6 800 km
    Fateh-110 SRBM Mach 3-4 300 km
    Soumar Cruise Mach 0.7-0.9

    Iran has not officially confirmed the development or deployment of
    multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles (MIRVs) on its
    ballistic missiles. However, there have been speculations and reports suggesting that Iran may be working on MIRV technology as part of its
    missile advancements

    Hypersonic ballistic missiles combine the speed of ballistic missiles
    with the maneuverability of hypersonic glide vehicles (HGVs). They
    travel at speeds above Mach 5 (five times the speed of sound) and follow
    a ballistic trajectory but can adjust their flight path mid-course,
    making them harder to intercept.

    Key features of hypersonic ballistic missiles:

    Extreme speed: Reaching hypersonic velocities (Mach 5+).

    Maneuverability: Can change direction, unlike traditional ballistic
    missiles.

    High survivability: Difficult to track and intercept using conventional
    missile defenses.

    Iran's Fattah missile is an example of a hypersonic ballistic missile.

    ...Also, Iran doesn't have ICBM as of yet, but is apparently closing to
    the capability. So US & Finland are safe for now!
