Iran reveals hypersonic missile capable of evading US defenses.
TL;DR
Iran has unveiled its first domestically-made hypersonic ballistic missile, the Fattah missile, which it claims can bypass the most advanced anti-ballistic missile systems of the United States and Israel's Iron Dome. The missile has a top speed of around Mach 14 and a range of 870 miles. However, the initial claims about the missile's capabilities could not be independently verified. This comes two weeks after Iran debuted the latest model of its Khorramshahr ballistic missile, which can strike within a range of 1,240 miles with a 3,300-pound warhead.
