 Tu dove abiti, itaidiota?
Ma il barone potra' mai avere una fissa dimora in questa
nazione? Dico LUI, stocazzo, siamo troppo provinciali noi.
Cmq, si dice che abbia comprato la stazione spaziale MIR
come ferrovecchio e che viva li sospeso fra cielo e terra
alle dipendenze dell'N.T.O.

Iran unveils redesigned Shahab missile
By Alon Ben-David JDW Correspondent
Tel Aviv
Iran has enhanced the range of its Shahab 3 medium-range ballistic missile
(MRBM) and a recent Shahab test appears to be of an early version of the
expected Shahab 4, according to Uzi Rubin, the former director of Israel's
Ballistic Missile Defence Organisation (BMDO).
Following analysis of footage of an 11 August Shahab test in Iran, Rubin
claims the new Shahab design bears a significant resemblance to the
Soviet-era SS-9 inter-continental ballistic missile (ICBM), now withdrawn
from Russian service.
According to Rubin, the Shahab re-entry vehicle of conical design has been
replaced by a smaller vehicle shaped like a 'baby bottle' neck. Also, the
cable raceway that ran along the propellant storage sections in previously
presented Shahabs has been elongated and is now emerging from the rear
'skirt' of the front section in what could be termed an 'over-the-shoulder'
layout.
"This kind of layout used to be a hallmark of Soviet ballistic missiles of
the 1960s, such as the liquid fuel, silo-launched SS-9 ICBM," said Rubin.
"Engineers have a tendency to copy their own previously successful designs.
The resemblance between the new Shahab and old Soviet missiles seems to be
more than a coincidence."
Rubin said that in previous Shahab variants the instrument section was
separated from the re-entry vehicle and located in the missile's cylindrical
section, whereas the new Shahab features an instrument section located in
the 'skirt' of the re-entry vehicle. "If indeed these are the thumbprints of
Russian designers, then the new Shahab's instrument section, like that of
the SS-9, will travel with the re-entry vehicle, rather than be discarded.
This is a useful arrangement for precise altitude fusing of nuclear
warheads," he said.
"The new Shahab is longer by 1m than its predecessors," said Rubin.
"Combined with the space freed by relocating the instrument section, the new
Shahab carries about 15% more propellant, enabling a range of 1,450km."
