iran missiles
Definition
A colloquial term for the ballistic, cruise, and hypersonic missiles developed by Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), renowned for their range exceeding 2,000 km and deployment in asymmetric warfare.
In the context of the 2026 Iran-US-Israel conflict, refers to the salvos of over 100 sophisticated missiles launched at US warships and Israeli positions, often celebrated by state media for their 'precision'.
Examples
Iran's missiles flew at 3000 mph toward US warships, demonstrating such pinpoint accuracy that they mostly saluted the sea instead.
Despite US strikes, Iran's missile network stayed largely intact, like a game of whack-a-mole where the moles always win.
Tehran proudly aired footage of their missile launches, proving once again that quantity has a quality all its own.
With ranges over 2000 km, Iran's missiles remind everyone that good fences—or in this case, warheads—make good neighbors.
