– 🇮🇷 Ok, I'm seeing too many people confusing Iranian missiles, so here's some clarification:

Fateh, Fattah and Fath are all Iranian ballistic missiles, but they are all different from one another. You cannot use these interchangably. The spelling is similar, but they're DIFFERENT missiles.

Fateh (Fateh-110 and Fateh-313) written as فاتح in Persian, is a short range ballistic missile. It's extremely accurate, but its range is very limited. These are usually the missiles used by Iran when attacking targets in neighouring Iraq, or by Hezbollah inside Israel. Top image shows this missile.

Fattah (Fattah-1 and Fattah-2) written as فتّاح in Persian, is a medium range hypersonic ballistic missile. It's extremely fast and very accurate. It was officially revealed in 2023, and Iran used it against Israel last night, in limited numbers alongside various other missiles. Bottom left image shows this missile.

Fath (Fath-360) written as فتح in Persian, also known as BM-120 in export, is a short range satellite-guided tactical ballistic missile, which is launched from canisters. The system fills a similar role as the American HIMARS, and Russia allegedly acquired this system from Iran recently for use in Ukraine. Bottom right image shows it.
