Previously, according to reference information, citing a report from the British " Jane's Defense Weekly ", the Houthi armed groups in Yemen publicly displayed a new Badr/P-1 ballistic missile produced by itself, which is believed to be the ballistic missile improved by Iran with the "Red Flag"-2 surface-to-air missile.
The outside world generally believes that the technology of Iran's Badr-1 ballistic missile comes from the introduction of a major country's "Red Flag"-2 surface-to-air missile; while the technology of "Red Flag"-2 surface-to-air missile comes from the former Soviet Union's SAM-2 surface-to-air missile.
The new Badr/P-1 ballistic missile produced by the Houthi armed forces in Yemen, as well as the ballistic missiles and surface-to-air missiles mentioned above, can form a closed loop, clearly explaining the source of the Badr/P-1 ballistic missile.
is based on the "Red Flag"-2 surface-to-air missile, which Iran successfully developed and equipped the Badr-1 ballistic missile, and sent it to the Yemeni Houthi armed forces - these scattered soldiers who were originally wearing slippers barefoot and looked like a mob.
With the strong support of the financial backer, Houthi armed has now worn a brand new training uniform, and has realized the military rank system in the army, with stubborn streaks on her shoulders. She can even use her own strength to tinker with the new Badr/P-1 ballistic missile, which really makes netizens look at it with admiration.
"Red Flag"-2 is an surface-to-air missile composed of secondary rockets. It is an all-weather, medium-high altitude and medium-range surface-to-air missile weapon system. It is mainly responsible for the important ground air defense mission, and is used to deal with fixed-wing aviation vehicles such as reconnaissance aircraft , fighter , attack aircraft, combat attack aircraft and bomber .
bullet length is 10.8 meters, the diameter is 0.5 meters, the weight is 2.32 tons, the shooting height is 1,000-27,000 meters, the range is 7-40 kilometers, and the probability of a single shot hitting is 73-92%, which varies depending on the target's flight speed. You can attack targets flying in the face and sideways, or you can chase the targets at the tail.
"Hongqi"-2 surface-to-air missiles have rich practical experience. A major Eastern power has made many achievements in national air defense and border operations. He has used it to shoot down several famous U-2 high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft; during the Vietnam War, both SAM-2 and "Hongqi"-2 shot down the famous F-4 "Ghost" fighter jets.
During the Iran-Iran War , Iran introduced a large number of "Red Flag"-2 surface-to-air missiles. On this basis, the Badr-1 ballistic missile was successfully developed, and the range was increased from 40 kilometers of the "Red Flag"-2 to more than 100 kilometers. The Iranian army is very satisfied with this type of ballistic missile and has purchased more than a thousand equipment.
Iran will provide some Badr-1 ballistic missiles to Yemeni Houthi forces to use them to deal with overseas alliances led by Saudi . The Houthi armed forces in Yemen once released a video shot by drones. In combat with Saudi Arabia and other coalition forces, they fired several Badr-1 ballistic missiles, one of which successfully hit the coalition command center located in the border area of Saudi Arabia and Yemen, causing serious losses of 20 officers and 50 injured.
This Badr-1 ballistic missile, which was improved from the "Red Flag"-2 surface-to-air missile, has an amazing explosion power. After this actual combat, it became a "big killer" in the hands of the Houthi armed forces, posing a huge threat to the Gulf multinational coalition led by Saudi Arabia.
According to Houthi armed spokesman Major General Saray, this Badr/P-1 ballistic missile has a range of 150 kilometers and is a "game changer" on the battlefield in Yemen. A spokesperson for the Saudi coalition forces had previously confirmed that from the start of war in April 2015 to August 2018, the Houthi armed group had launched a total of up to 189 ballistic missiles into Saudi Arabia.
In addition, Yemen's Houthi armed forces also transformed the Badr-1 ballistic missile assisted by Iran into a Qaher M2 "Ocean" anti-ship ballistic missile with a range of more than 200 kilometers. On September 22, it was grandly launched at the military parade held by it, which attracted the attention of the outside world.
shocked the world. The Yemeni Houthi armed forces, who were so poor that they did not have a uniform military factory at all. It is speculated that in the simple handicraft workshop, they could even tinker with anti-ship ballistic missile . The Yemeni Houthi armed forces are really talented.
