Najar said : " " The Islamic Republic of Iran has never aimed to launch an attack on any country . It will never do so . But if someone wants to invade Iran , they will face a crushing response by the armed forces . " " He did not say how the missile differed from the Shahab - 3 , which has a range of 2100 km . He told the gathering Basij militia during the manoeuvres they were holding that same week that : " " The construction of the Ashoura missile , with the range of 2 , 000 km , is among the accomplishments of the Defence Ministry . " " According to " Jane ' s Defence Weekly " , the Ashoura represents a major breakthrough in Iranian missile technology . It is the first two stage MRBM using solid - fueled rocket motors instead of the existing liquid - fueled technology used on the Shahab . This would dramatically reduce the setup and deployment time for the missile and hence , shorten the amount of warning time for the enemy and increase accuracy . Jane ' s noted that while the development parallels Pakistan ' s Shaheen - II MRBM there is no evidence to suggest there had been any prior technology exchange or with its other known technology partners such as North Korea , India or China The Ashoura was developed by the Shahid Bagheri Industrial Group ( SBIG ) under the Sanam Industrial Group ( Department 140 ) which is part of the Defense Industries Organization ( DIO ) of Iran .
