Iran says range of its land-to-sea missiles increased to 700 km
The range of Iranian land-to-sea ballistic missile has been increased to 700 km (435 miles), a senior military official said on Tuesday, as tensions rose between Iran and the United States over new sanctions.
"We have managed to make land-to-sea ballistic, not cruise, missiles that can hit any vessel or ship from 700 kilometres," Amirali Hajizadeh, head of the Revolutionary Guards' airspace division, was quoted as saying by Fars news agency.
