Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said Monday some Iranian missiles can now be guided and change course during flight, allowing them to evade air defense systems, Anadolu reports.
“Iranian missiles are no longer like they were in the past, merely launched from one point to land at another,” the official IRNA news agency quoted IRGC spokesman Hossein Mohabi as saying at an event in the northern city of Qazvin.
“They now possess guidance and course-changing capabilities, and some can alter their trajectory during flight to bypass the enemy’s air defense systems,” he added.
Mohabi said the Iranian capabilities were used during the recent war with the US to target parts of what he described as the “enemy’s power network.”
