Russia aids Iran in hypersonic missile tech
The Financial Times has confirmed that Russia is secretly assisting Iran in developing hypersonic cruise missiles capable of threatening U.S. warships in the Middle East. The program began in 2023 and aims to provide Iran with a "supersonic jet propulsion" engine that enables it to carry out attacks at speeds exceeding sound, making them difficult to intercept because they fly at low altitude and reach speeds of 2,200 miles per hour. This cooperation is believed to reflect a broader military partnership between Russia and Iran, as Moscow has supplied Tehran with UAVs and shared intelligence information, amid escalating tensions with the United States and Iran in the region.
