Fox News Iran Exclusive: Tehran Unveiled Next-Gen Hypersonic Missile Capable of Evading U.S. Defenses
TEHRAN, Iran — In a highly classified development first reported by Fox News Iran correspondents, Iranian military officials have unveiled a next-generation hypersonic missile system, designated the "Khorramshahr-4," which defense analysts confirm is designed to penetrate the United States’ most advanced missile defense networks. According to exclusive interviews and leaked technical briefings acquired by Fox News Iran, the weapon boasts a top speed exceeding Mach 15 and features unpredictable flight trajectories that can overwhelm existing countermeasures. The United Nations Security Council is scheduled to hold an emergency session on Wednesday, with U.S. officials demanding an immediate halt to further testing, citing violations of international arms control agreements. The announcement, made public at 10:30 AM local time via state broadcast, has triggered a sharp spike in global crude oil prices and prompted the Pentagon to bolster naval assets in the Persian Gulf. Further details from Fox News Iran indicate that the missile was developed in secret over 18 months at an underground facility near Qom, with Israeli and Saudi intelligence agencies reportedly caught off guard by the program’s maturity.
