The Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps is examining the possibility of making technical changes to the missiles that may allow them to reach American territory, in light of Iranian statements regarding raising the ceiling of the missiles' range, which was set at two thousand kilometers, according to the Tasnim agency.
The agency close to the Revolutionary Guards presented a two-stage scenario, the first starting with the "Khormashhar 4" missile, as it determined that reducing the weight of its warhead from two tons to one ton, or 500 kilograms, could increase its travel range to 3 to 4,000 km.
According to the agency, this range may put the bases of the United States and its allies in southeastern and eastern Europe, and even in the center of the continent, within the range of Iranian missiles.
As for the second stage, it is about the possibility of developing an intercontinental missile. The agency said that reaching the east coast of the United States, near Washington and New York, would require its range to reach about 10,000 kilometers, and over 13,000 kilometers to reach all parts of the American territory.
