Iran says it has started cruise missile production

[Mary]

Iran said Sunday it has launched a new production line of highly accurate, short range cruise missiles, which would add a new element to the country's already imposing arsenal.

 

Gen. Ahmad Vahidi told Iranian state TV that the cruise missile, called Nasr 1, would be capable of destroying targets up to 3,000 tons in size.

 

The minister said the missile can be launched from the surface but would eventually be modified to be fired from helicopters and submarines.

 

The world is already concerned about Iran's military capabilities, especially the implications of its nuclear program. The U.S. and some of its allies, as well as the International Atomic Energy Agency, say Iran is apparently trying to produce nuclear weapons, a charge Iran denies.

 

UGH - Yet again man strives to kill themselves.

No one comes anyway near spending as much as the US.

Yes, I know we have the most and that we should not have any along with the rest of the world. What the heck how many times can you blow up our world?

Perhaps these Countries Mary, believe in the second ammendment of the US Constitution - perhaps Iran may apply to join the National Rifle Assoc?!
