During the unveiling ceremony, Amir Ali Hajizadeh, commander of the IRGC’s Aerospace Force, called the Fattah “a missile that is unique in the world.”
“The Fatah missile cannot be destroyed by any missile due to its movement in different directions and heights, because anti-missile missiles move according to a specific vector, which of course has a low speed,” claimed Hajizadeh.
“Our operations in this area will not end with the construction of this missile, because we will continue on this path so that no enemy even imagines attacking Iran.”
According to Iranian media, the Fattah hypersonic missile has a range of 1,400 kilometers ( 870 miles) and hits speeds of Mach 13-15. The reports claimed that the missile is able to bypass and destroy air defense systems.
