The Ghadr-110 is an intermediate-range ballistic missile designed and developed by Iran. The missile has a range of 2,500 km[2] to 3,000 km.[1] The Iranian Armed Forces first showed off the missile at an annual military parade to mark the Iran-Iraq war. The Ghadr-110 is an improved version of the Shahab-3A, also known as the Ghadr-101. It is believed to have a liquid-fuel first stage and a solid-fuel second stage, which allowes it to have a range of 2,000 km.[1] The Ghadr-110 has a higher maneuverability and a shorter set up time than the Shahab-3. Its set-up time is 30 minutes while the older Shahab-3 has a set-up time of several hours. The missile has been manufactured entirely in Iran at the top-secret Hemmat Missile Industries Complex.[3] In March 2006, the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) (an opposition group of the Iranian government) claimed Iran had ramped up the production of this missile and that it would be finished in a year.
