The Fath-360 missiles were handed over by Iran to Russia without launchers, but the Russian Federation can manufacture them independently. This was reported by Defense Express.

«There is no great difficulty for the Russian Federation in this, but there is a point. The fact is that in Iran, the Fath-360 is launched using a 6x6 truck, most likely from the main national manufacturer Saipa Diesel, which produces copies of Chinese Dongfeng KC. Against this background, even the Russian Federation may have questions about the reliability and maintenance of these vehicles», – the material says.

According to the publication, Russia can mount the Fath-360 missiles on its own chassis, such as the Ural or KamAZ. The launcher mechanism is not complicated.

«In particular, the first version of the Fath-360 launcher, still without launch containers, indicates that a solution with a guide, borrowed from the Fateh-110, is used for its launch, which is not surprising since the Fath-360 is a smaller copy of it. And the Fateh-110 has its roots in the Soviet Luna-M of the 1960s, from which it borrowed the launch system», – the publication writes.

The United Kingdom and the United States are particularly concerned that Russia may share nuclear secrets with Iran in exchange for missiles for use in the war against Ukraine.

Earlier, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken stated that Iran transferred ballistic missiles to Russia for attacks on Ukraine. Russia has already received shipments of ballistic missiles. The use of these missiles is expected within a few weeks.

The European Union has also received reliable information from allies about Iran's supply of ballistic missiles to Russia.
