Advanced Features of the Qadr-380

The new missile features an intelligent target selection system, allowing it to adjust routes and flight paths for greater precision in attacks. Additionally, according to Iranian media, the Qadr-380 has high resistance to electronic warfare, making it effective even in interference scenarios.


The missile was presented to the press being launched from trucks with a civilian appearance, which may indicate a strategy to make its identification and tracking more difficult. However, Iranian experts claim that the Qadr-380 can also be integrated into surface warships, increasing its versatility on the battlefield.

Origins and Development

The missile was developed by engineers from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy, which operates independently from Iran’s regular Armed Forces.

Analysts point out that the Qadr-380 was developed based on the Abu Mahdi anti-ship cruise missile, introduced by Iran in 2020, which also has a range of over 1000 km.

In addition to land-based platforms, the new missile can be launched from aircraft and naval vessels, utilizing advanced artificial intelligence to enhance target acquisition and optimize flight routes.
