Emad (Persian: عماد, lit. 'pillar') is an Iranian-designed, liquid-fuel,[1] medium-range ballistic missile (MRBM), a derivative of the Shahab-3.

Description

[edit]

The Emad can carry a 750 kg payload 1,700 km, with a target accuracy of 10 m.[2] It uses a new nose cone design, which is different from that of the original Shahab-3. The changed design may make it possible for the warhead to detonate high above a target, which makes it more suitable for an air burst chemical, biological[3] or nuclear weapon detonation, as well as for nuclear electromagnetic pulse attack.[1]

The missile was presented by Brigadier General Hossein Dehghan on 11 October 2015.[4][5] The Emad features a newly designed reentry vehicle with a more advanced guidance and control system, making it Iran's first IRBM that is precision-guided.[6][7][8][9][10] The missile features a Maneuverable reentry vehicle (MARV).[11] The missile has an advanced guidance and control system in its nose cone, and it is said to have an accuracy of about 50 meters.[4][12][13] The missile, which appears to be another variant of the Shahab-3, was expected to be delivered to the armed forces some time in 2016.
