‘Tis the season of love, wonder, and miracles. So here’s an Iranian short-range satellite-guided tactical ballistic missile system.
Mounted on an Iveco Trakker curtain-sided truck, the Fath-360 TEL missile system is so nondescript when covered up, it could be driving down any European street and no-one would know what was inside. Good thing one of Iran’s customers isn’t currently invading a European neighbour then.
Of course you might be wondering how sanctioned Iran, and its allies Russia and Syria, are getting their hands on an Italian truck on which to mount a ballistic missile system, particularly as Italy (along with the rest of the EU) are supporting Ukraine, the very country invaded by Iran’s key customer. Well, us too.
Whatever, this neat mini-figure scale replica of the Fath-360 missile system and the Iveco Trakker that transports it comes from previous bloggee Ralph Savelsberg, who has captured it superbly, particularly the ‘curtain’ stacked over the cab to allow deployment. There’s more to see on Flickr, and you can join some Russians driving an Iranian ballistic missile system covertly through a Ukrainian town, courtesy of Italy, via the link above.
