In contrast to the previous attack, Iran used a solemn rocket for the first time – one of the ranks of his ballistic rocket weapons and superior cruising.
“The 12th Wave” Operation True Promise 3 “started, with the launch of a very heavy two -stage rocket and has a long distance,” said Iranian news agency Irna.
The most important target of the launch of the SEJIL is the headquarters of the Israeli army center for communication, control and intelligence (C4I), which is close to the Soroka Medical Center Military Hospital in Beersheba.
The attack increased the tension between Iran and Israel, so Netanyahu had yielded the Iranian attack.
Here are a number of facts about a real rocket that you can know.
1. Specifications

Used since 2012, so that it can wear a single core head of around 700 with a range of up to 2,000 km. Allegedly this rocket will wear a high explosive core head (he) until Iran gets a nuclear explosive upper.
2. Development Sejil
The rocket is estimated to be developed in the late 1990s, which is the result of the development of earlier Iranian missiles, in particular Zelzal Short-Range Missiles (SRBM).
Although it has a size, weight and range comparable to other Iranian rocket variants, namely Shahab 3, the use of solid fuel is a large increase compared to Shahab design.
The use of solid fuels in a single, in particular, is the result of progress in driving technology that was achieved in combination with the Zelzal program in the nineties, which it is assumed to receive help from China.
A solid fuel is chosen because it has a faster launch time, so the possibility of rockets will be destroyed when the launch process becomes much smaller. However, the other side, fixed, fixed rockets have certain performance characteristics that make it more difficult to be led and controlled.
3. Operational history
The test with the first rocket launch was carried out in 2008, with a rocket reportedly up to 800 km. The second launch was carried out in May 2009 to test the guide and the navigation system that had increased.
