Iran has reportedly used one of its most advanced ballistic missiles, the Sejjil, during the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.
About Sejjil Missile:
It is a two-stage, solid-fuel medium-range ballistic missile (MRBM) developed by Iran.
Because of its high-altitude manoeuvring ability, it has been nicknamed the "dancing missile", a reference to its capability to evade missile defence systems.
The weapon is also known by several other names, including Sajjil, Ashoura, and Ashura.
Features:
Its solid-fuel design offers a strategic advantage, allowing it to be prepared and launched more quickly than older liquid-fuel systems like the Shahab series.
It has an estimated range of about 2,000 kilometres and a payload capacity of roughly 700 kilograms.
It is designed to carry both conventional explosive payloads and nuclear warheads.
