The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps of Iran said on the 5th that they launched the "Khorramshahr-4" super heavy missile carrying a 1-ton warhead, targeting multiple Israeli targets. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps of Iran issued Statement No. 21, stating that on that morning, in the 19th wave of attacks called "True Commitment-4" against the United States and Israel, Iran used the "Khorramshahr-4" super heavy missile carrying a 1-ton warhead to strike the center of Tel Aviv, Ben-Gurion Airport, and the Israeli Air Force base at the airport. The statement said that these missiles successfully broke through Israel's multiple defenses under the escort of advance anti-drone systems. According to reports by the Iranian Fars News Agency on that day, the "Khorramshahr-4" missile is about 13 meters long, 1.5 meters in diameter, weighs about 30 tons, and can reach speeds of up to Mach 16 outside the atmosphere and about Mach 8 inside the atmosphere. It takes only 10 to 12 minutes from launch to hitting targets in Israel, thus allowing many missile defense systems insufficient time to provide an effective response. Data shows that the "Khorramshahr-4" missile has a range of 2000 kilometers and can be equipped with various warheads. The statement pointed out that in the 18th wave of attacks called "True Commitment-4", Iran "effectively targeted" 20 American targets in Israel, Bahrain, Kuwait, and the United Arab Emirates. The statement also mentioned that all elements of the Iranian armed forces are engaged in comprehensive and multi-line operations, surpassing the military assessments of the United States and Israel, and that the dynamics of the war have changed.
