Public unveiling of Fateh-313 short-range ballistic missile

On 22AUG15 during Defense Industry Day in Tehran, a ceremony was held at IAIO to publicly unveil the Fateh-313 ("Conqueror-313") short-range ballistic missile.

This is the first unveiling of new Iranian ballistic missile technology since the signing of JCPOA. It follows Iranian parliamentary and military official calls for ballistic missile exercises, presumably intended as a show of force in defiance of JCPOA sanctions-related compromises and UNSC resolution restrictions agreed upon by the Rouhani administration.

Claimed range for the 6th generation solid-propellant Fateh-series SRBM is 500 km, giving the new variant an intended comparable range and sought-after accuracy of Iskander-M (NATO: SS-26 Stone) mobile SRBM system.

Fateh-313 appears to be feature composite materials, providing a lighter weight than previous variants. MODAFL claims the new variant"runs on combined solid fuel using a domestically-designed sensor" and has "been previously test-fired and successfully hit targets". MODAFL further states the Fateh-313 is intended for serial production.
