Dezful (Persian: دزفول) is a medium range ballistic missile (MRBM) developed by Iran and unveiled in February 2019 in an underground missile factory.[1] The Iranian armed forces said that this missile has a range of over 1000 kilometers (620 miles).[2][1] It carries a 600 or 700 kg warhead and has a CEP of 5 meters. This missile can dive toward its targets at a speed of Mach 7 (8,643 km/h).[3] Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh said this is an upgrade on the older Zolfaghar model, that had a range of 700 kilometers.[4]
