Raad is an Iranian heavy anti-ship missile with the range of 360 km.[1] Although the missile resembles Chinese HY-2, it has significant differences. It uses the Iranian Toloue-4 turbojet engine and the DM-3B mono pulse radar used in Noor.[2]
Two air intakes are situated at the sides of the missile and one in the bottom. It is launched from shore-based TELs and ships, although no Iranian ship is reported to use the missile.[2] Development finished in 2004[3] and the missile was tested in Blow of Zolfaqar naval wargames in 2006.[4][5] The missile is said[who?] to be under production.[2]
