Iran (IP) - The use of modern missile launcher systems plays a key role in the success of ballistic missile operations, one of which is the Fath 360 system.

Iran PressIran News:  Made in Iran, the Fath 360 missile system is a mobile launcher of tactical ballistic missiles designed for low ranges.  

The system, relying fully on wheeled chassis, uses commercial trailers that facilitate its camouflage; it is known in the Army as Fath 360 and IRIGC as Moqaddam. 

Fath can carry and launch one to six missiles, including the Fath missile, such that it is capable of firing 6 Fath missiles within 60 seconds at 6 separate targets. 

With the advent of the Fatah 360 missile system in the army, precise attacks in short range, especially the destruction of the enemy's anti-missile systems, are on the agenda. 

Cylindrical launchers of the Fatah 360 system protect Fatah missiles from any environmental damage due to the placement of the missile inside them. Furthermore, hiding in such places that have the least defense logistics makes the launcher more ready for rapid responses.

Still, the Fath missile itself is a homemade ballistic one working with slid fuel; the missile is 5,175 mm long, with a diameter of 368 mm, and a weight of 787 kg, 150 kg of which is just for the warhead; the velocity of the missile is also Mach 4.  

As a precision-guided missile, the storage lifetime of Fath is 10 years; the error of hitting is 30 m, and the maximum and minimum range are respectively 120 km and 30 km.

The Iranian light ballistic missile keeps its balance thanks to its wings, with its warhead being capable of taking away from the body when dealing with anti-missile systems.

The Fath missile is equipped with rock-crushing warheads and a hybrid optical guidance system and is highly resistant in the electronic warfare environment.

Iran's Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) destroyed the US-supported separationist groups' positions in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq last fall by the very missile. 

The Fath 360 missile system was designed by the IRGC Ground Force experts and tested successfully.
