Israeli TV shows first images of Iranian missile that can reach 'far beyond Europe'

As Iran allegedly negotiates an agreement with the P 5+1 with respect to its nuclear program, Israel's Channel 2 showed a satellite image (above) in which a new Iranian missile 'that can reach far beyond Europe' is shown.
Iran has built a 27-meter-long missile, capable of delivering a warhead “far beyond Europe,” and placed it on a launch pad at a site close to Tehran, an Israeli television report said Wednesday, showing what it said were the first satellite images of the missile ever seen in the West.

It stressed that the missile could be used to launch spacecraft or satellites, but also to carry warheads.

The Channel 2 news report showed satellite imagery documenting what it said was Iran’s “very rapid progress” on long-range missile manufacture.

It showed one photograph of a site near Tehran, which it said the West had known about for two years, where Iran was working on engines for its long-range missiles.

It then showed a satellite photograph of a second site, nearby, which featured a launch pad, with the 27-meter missile on it — an Iranian missile “never seen before” by the West.

The missile is capable of taking a manned spacecraft or satellite into space, the TV report said.

It is also capable of carrying a conventional or non-conventional warhead “far beyond Europe,” the report added.

Another weapon whose development is not restricted by the JPOA? What could go wrong?

“It runs on Stuxnet software, LOL”

Odd, I had heard it runs on Son Of Stuxnet software.

Well how about that?

Looks like the Norkies have been visiting Iran, showing the camel humpers there how to replicate the Long Dong 4 North Korean, sovereignty -bashing missile used against Japan.

I can hardly wait until the Iranians launch this against Israel.

Iran will be reduced to obsidian slag within 3 hours.
