Iran’s Qadr-F ballistic missile is one of the longest-range missiles in Iran’s arsenal, with an estimated range of nearly 2,000 kilometers. Derived from the Shahab-3 family, the Qadr-F is a medium-range ballistic missile designed to strike targets deep beyond Iran’s borders.In this video, we break down the Qadr-F’s range, guidance system, warhead capacity, launch preparation, maneuverable reentry vehicle and combat history. The missile has reportedly been used in Iran’s conflicts with Israel, highlighting Tehran’s ability to deploy long-range ballistic missiles in live combat. We examine why the Qadr-F remains strategically important despite the emergence of newer solid-fuel Iranian missiles — and how its capabilities could challenge missile-defense systems such as Israel’s Arrow and THAAD.
