Emad (missile)

Emad (Persian: عماد) is an Iranian-designed, liquid-fuel, intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM) with a claimed range of 1,700 km and 1,750 kg payload. The missile was presented by Brigadier General Hossein Dehghan on 11 October 2015. Emad features a newly designed reentry vehicle with a more advanced guidance and control system, making it the country's first IRBM that is precision-guided.

With an advanced guidance and control system in its nose cone, the missile's accuracy is reported to be around 500 meters. The missile, which appears to be another variant of the Shahab-3, will be delivered to the armed forces some time in 2016.
