The Leader of the Islamic Revolution’s Message to the Arab States of the Persian Gulf Printed on a Kheibar Shekan Missile
A message from the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Mojtaba Khamenei, addressed to the Arab states of the Persian Gulf has been printed on a Kheibar Shekan missile prepared for launch.
In part of his message marking the 40th day after the martyrdom of the Leader of the Nation, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution addressed the Arab states of the Persian Gulf, saying:
“To Iran’s southern neighbors, I say at this moment: You are witnessing a miracle. Look carefully, understand well, stand on the right side, and beware of the false promises of deceitful devils. We are still awaiting an appropriate response from you so that we may demonstrate our brotherhood and goodwill. This can only be achieved if you reject the arrogant powers that never miss an opportunity to humiliate and exploit you.”
The Kheibar Shekan Ballistic Missile
The Kheibar Shekan (“Kheibar Breaker”) is one of Iran’s advanced ballistic missiles, with an operational range of 1,450 kilometers.
The missile is 10.5 meters long, has a diameter of 800 millimeters, and weighs 4,500 kilograms. Its 500-kilogram warhead travels toward its target at speeds exceeding 5,000 kilometers per hour.
One of the missile’s most notable features is its separable, guided warhead, which can be controlled and maneuvered until the moment of impact. The warhead is capable of performing complex evasive maneuvers designed to deceive enemy missile defense systems, thereby improving its accuracy.
In November 2023, during a visit by the late Leader of the Islamic Revolution and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces to an exhibition showcasing the achievements of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Aerospace Force, a new version of the Kheibar Shekan missile was unveiled. In addition to modifications to its warhead design, the upgraded version increased the missile’s range to 1,800 kilometers.
