In this 🧵, I review the risks and benefits of a likely candidate for the next Iranian retaliation to Israel, Khorramshahr missile, especially the latest version: Khorramshahr-4 AKA Kheibar.
You can see Khorramshahr-4 specifications in this info-graphy. 1 Image Khorramshahr is a liquid-fueled MRBM likely derived from the North Korean Musudan (BM-25) missile. Musudan has an estimated range of 2,500-4,000 km. Khorramshahr range is declared 2000 km likely not to piss the Europeans off. 2 Image

1. A drone optic video by Russian sources shows a black skid under a UAV which reminds one of the Iranian UAVs Meraj and Yasir. However, Yasir is an older drone and has been successfully used by Iranian different forces and proxies before.
#Thread on Yasir UAV 2. Iran captured an American Scan Eagle UAV in the Persian Gulf on December 2012. The first project to copy that was named Sayeh (meaning shadow).

First Video of IRGC Navy Shahid Soleimani class catamaran corvette.
The vessel is claimed to have VLS for AD missiles with 150 km range. A helipad with Bell-206 helicopter and crane for supporting IRGC fast attack crafts can be seen at the first glance. A view on the cruise AShM launchers which are on each side of Shahid Soleimani class catamaran corvette.
Totally, four Qader/Qadir with 300 km range and two Nasr/Nasir with 90 km range.

1. I previously analyzed the Super Hornets on USS Eisenhower #CVN69 in the Arabian sea twice (April 2nd and June 12th).
Here I do the same on USS Ronald Reagan #CVN76 on July 3rd passing San Bernardino strait and USS Nimitz #CVN68 on July 6th in the south China sea. 2. The pictures are less visible than IKE's. But on USS Ronald Reagan, I can see out of 33
3 Growlers
1 five wet tanker
7 Super Hornets armed with 1 Sidewinder
No visible AMRAAM or Maverick. 2

New pictures by @Reuters from US report to @UN Security Council on the UAV used for Aramco attack in Abqaiq. Shows its engine & vertical gyro compared to the ones from Iranian Shahed-123 UAV and a far picture of that delta wing UAV in an IRGC exhibition. @Reuters @UN @fab_hinz @AlexLuck9 @Aviation_Intel @TheDEWLine 1. Based on all the #OSINT analyses done on Aramco Abqaiq attack UAV so far and US government data, I guess the Iranians obtained the ASN-301 Chinese UAV (export version of the Chinese copy of the Israeli Harpy UAV) & copied it with their own equipment. I will show why #Thread.
