Iranian Silkworm Missile Tested
On Friday, Iran began major military maneuvers involving submarines, warships, missiles, jet fighters and gunships in the Sea of Oman and the Indian Ocean. Yesterday, the second Iranian-built submarine was commissioned and it's reported to be able to launch torpedoes and missiles simultaneously.
Earlier today, Iranian television reported that Silkworm surface-to-sea missiles (photo) with a range of 110 kilometers (68 miles) were successfully tested. Increased numbers of Silkworm sites have been established along the Persian Gulf coast, posing a significant security threat.
I think it would be foolish to ignore the Iranian arms buildup.
