Kheibar Shekan es un misil balistico irani de alcance medio y combustible solido desarrollado por la Fuerza Aeroespacial del IRGC y presentado publicamente en 2022 con un alcance declarado de 1.450 km. Referencias misilisticas de fuentes abiertas lo clasifican como un MRBM desplegado de una sola etapa con una carga util de 450-600 kg, mientras que la cobertura de 2025 vincula afirmaciones iranies sobre Kheibar Shekan con ataques con misiles balisticos contra Israel.

Side
Iran

Informes vinculados al Estado irani dijeron que el IRGC uso misiles Kheibar Shekan de combustible solido en las oleadas de marzo de 2026 de la Operation True Promise 4 contra objetivos israelies, incluidos Haifa y Tel Aviv, y contra instalaciones regionales estadounidenses.

Design Notes

Mehr e IRNA presentaron Kheibar Shekan como un misil del IRGC de combustible solido, mas ligero y de lanzamiento mas rapido, mientras que Iran Watch y FDD lo situan en el linaje de MRBM de propelente solido de la familia Fateh. Esas fuentes respaldan el perfil tecnico basico, pero no verifican de forma independiente cada afirmacion irani de rendimiento.

Afirmacion de alcance

1.450 km.

Iran Watch, Mehr e IRNA recogen la misma cifra publica de alcance.

Ciclo de lanzamiento

Informes iranies dicen que el tiempo de preparacion y disparo se redujo en una sexta parte.

Util como afirmacion con fuente, no como prueba independiente confirmada de rendimiento.

Comportamiento de la cabeza de guerra

FDD describe una cabeza de guerra separable; JINSA describe caracteristicas de reentrada maniobrable y aletas de control.

El registro evita afirmaciones de penetracion mas solidas salvo que esten vinculadas a una fuente directa de conflicto.

Variants

Las fuentes publicas tratan mayoritariamente Kheibar Shekan y Kheybar Shekan como variantes de transliteracion del mismo misil; la redaccion separada Kheibar o Khaibar en informes de conflicto tambien puede crear ambiguedad con designaciones mas antiguas de la familia Qadr/Ghadr.

Iran Watch says the Houthi Palestine 2 missile appears to be a variant of the Iranian Kheibar Shekan MRBM, while the linked Palestine 2 page keeps the Houthi system's separate conflict use and sourcing limits.

Iran Watch notes that Fattah-1 uses a large solid rocket booster derived from the Kheibar Shekan design, making the linked Fattah-1 record a related but distinct missile.

Palestine 2Derivado evaluado como relacionado con los huties

Iran Watch dice que el misil huti Palestine 2 parece ser una variante del MRBM irani Kheibar Shekan, mientras que la pagina enlazada de Palestine 2 mantiene el uso en conflicto y los limites de fuentes separados del sistema huti.

Iran Watch senala que Fattah-1 usa un gran propulsor cohete solido derivado del diseno Kheibar Shekan, lo que convierte al registro enlazado de Fattah-1 en un misil relacionado pero distinto.

Ghadr/Qadr Ballistic Missile, Medium-range ballistic missile, MunitionsMunitionsGhadr/Qadr Ballistic MissileMedium-range ballistic missileThe Ghadr/Qadr family is an Iranian road-mobile medium-range ballistic missile line derived from the Shahab-3, with open-source references using Ghadr, Qadr, Ghadr-1, Ghadr-110, Ghadr-H, Qadr-H, Qadr-F, Emad, and related labels unevenly across variants. CSIS and Iran Watch describe Ghadr-class missiles as deployed Iranian systems with roughly 1,600-1,950 km range and a payload near 750-800 kg, while Iranian state reporting directly connects Ghadr-H/Qadr-H/Kheibar, Qadr/Qader, Emad, and one source-limited Badr wording to long-range strikes in the 2025 Israel-Iran Conflict and 2026 Iran War.

CSIS and IISS describe Shahab-1 as a Scud-B copy with roughly 300 km class range, Shahab-2 as Iran's Scud-C line with roughly 500 km range, and Shahab-3 as the road-mobile MRBM that entered Iranian service in 2003 and became the basis for later Ghadr/Qadr and Emad variants.
