Hormuz-2 (missile) ( Persian: موشک هرمز-2) [2] [3] is an Iranian [4] [5] naval (strike) ballistic missile [6] which is able to hit floating-targets at sea with high accuracy. The range of this Iranian missile is approximately 300 km. [7] It was revealed in a defense exhibition on 11 May 2014 [1] and is believed to be an Anti-radiation derivative of Fateh-110 tactical ballistic missile having Terminal guidance instead of Electro-Optical guidance. [1]
In March 2017, it was reported that this domestically made ballistic missile dubbed “Hormuz-2” was fired. [8]
Hormuz-2's [9] [10] [11] appearance is mentioned to be very similar to the missile of Persian Gulf (Khalije-Fars) which is a supersonic quasi ballistic anti-ship missile, which is reported to be able of targeting warships. [12] [13] [14] [15]
