In the coming days, Russia can receive from Iran a party of ballistic missiles, which will significantly increase its ability to fight long distances. About it reports British military analyst Sean Bell in Sky News. According to him, the supply agreement is almost complete, and this is a matter of time.
Sean Bell noted that Russia has been negotiating with Iran for a long time, including small range ballistic missiles. These missiles are able to impress targets up to 120 km away, and they will be an important complement to the Russian arsenal. Earlier, rumors about the probable deliveries of Iranian weapons appeared in the summer of 2022, but now analysts are convinced that it will happen in the coming days.
The supply of Iranian missiles will have serious consequences for military conflict. According to Sean Bell, it will allow Russia to maintain its limited reserves of Iskander missiles for more important purposes for long distances, which will create additional pressure on Ukrainian defense forces. Moreover, the Russian military has been trained in Iran for several weeks, mastering the use of new ballistic systems, which further increases the likelihood of inevitable supply.
Western countries, including the United Kingdom and the United States, are concerned about this cooperation between Russia and Iran. Iranian Fateh-360 missiles can become a new weapon for the Russian army, which can significantly change the situation on the battlefield. According to Western media, rockets can be delivered in the coming weeks or even days, which poses an additional threat to Ukraine.
