The IDF<\/a> on Wednesday announced that it had destroyed Ghadr-class ballistic missiles and their launch platforms at Isfahan<\/a> in Iran.<\/p>\n

The Ghadr 110 is the most advanced type of Ghadr missile (there are several categories of Ghadr), and is a two-stage missile that includes a solid-fuel engine to shorten launch preparations, which makes it potentially harder to strike prior to launch.<\/p>\n

Its range is estimated between 1,500 and 2,000 kilometers, one of Iran’s longest-range ballistic missiles, and can easily strike anywhere in Israel.<\/a><\/p>\n

Experts believe that the Ghadr design has the potential to be further developed to eventually be used for further ranges of up to 5,000 kilometers and possibly as an anti-space satellite.<\/p>\n

Isfahan has both nuclear sites and ballistic missile sites and has been a repeat target both in June 2025 and in the current conflict.<\/p>\n

Following the IDF revelation on Tuesday night that not only have several dozen missile launchers been destroyed, but over 300 have been neutralized (likely meaning damaged or caved in by bombings), the latest attacks could start pushing the IDF toward neutralizing closer to 400 launchers.<\/p>\n

In June 2024, Iran only had around 400 launchers, of which over 200 were destroyed.<\/p>\n

However, IDF sources said that Iran has rebuilt new launchers at an impressive rate since June 2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The IDF on Wednesday announced that it had destroyed Ghadr-class ballistic missiles and their launch platforms at Isfahan…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":317987,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[12274,1031,85,87,12157,92,101782,21453,46,43,157282,157283],"class_list":{"0":"post-321649","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-israel","8":"tag-iaf","9":"tag-idf","10":"tag-il","11":"tag-iran","12":"tag-iran-missiles","13":"tag-iran-nuclear","14":"tag-isfahan","15":"tag-islamic-revolutionary-guard-corps","16":"tag-israel","17":"tag-news","18":"tag-operation-epic-fury","19":"tag-operation-roaring-lion"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/321649","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=321649"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/321649\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/317987"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=321649"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=321649"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=321649"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
