Iranian disguised nuclear agency found a business out of place to launch a top space program
First on the fox: A concealed agency within the Iranian Ministry of Defense and Logistics of the Armed Forces, in charge The development of an Iranian nuclear programThey have been discovered that they are acting at the peak that uses the Iranian space program.
Iran is the hidden elements of its nuclear development program under the guise of commercial companies, and he suspected that he used his space program for technologies that could be applied to his nuclear weapon program.
Fox News Digital learned that according to the information they were obtained by sources built into the Iranian regimeThe evidence collected over several months shows that the Iranian main Nuclear Development Agency, the organization of defense innovations and research, has managed two locations that have been previously recognized as the development of space and launch site.

“These reports, composed of dozens of sources and thoroughly confirmed, indicate that in recent months the SPND has increased its efforts to build nuclear guidance in Shahrud and Semnan,” said the National Council of Iran (NCRI) UA Report exclusively obtained from Fox News Digital.
Information was obtained by individuals associated with the Irana National Mihadine Organization and were given by NCRI, an Iranian opposition organization with its headquarters in Washington, DC -UI Paris. NCRI -Deputy Director of his Washington Office, DC, Alirez Jafarzadeh, was the first to publish world information about the Iranian concealed Nuclear program 2002.
One of the places, the shahroud space center, which is suspected of using the Iranian Islamic revolutionary guard (IRGC) develop a medium -range ballistic rocketIt is also alleged that he has an “extensive” SPND staff that operates from him-Potez that Jafarzadeh described as a “significant red flag”.
The Shahroud Space Center attracted global attention in 2022 when Iran announced that it developed a Ghaem-100 rocket, which could be used to send low orbits to space, but also as a ballistic rocket with a range of nearly 1,400 miles, greater than greater than what was previously achieved by a rocket.
However, according to the sources, familiar with activities at the Shahroud Space Center “SPD’s experts work on nuclear crayons for solid fuel rocket GHAEM100 with a range of more than 3000 kilometers [more than 1,800 miles] and a mobile starting pad. “

The place is under great certainty, and the staff is obviously forbidden to drive to the complex. Instead, they have to park at the checkpoint at the entrance to the place, before IRGC transports them inside the complex.
“The GHAEM-100 rocket, with a mobile trigger that increases its military capacity, was produced by IRGC Aerospace Force and copied from the North Korean rockets,” the NCRI report said. “The production of Ghaem rocket was designed from the beginning to wear nuclear warheads. IRGC Brigadier General Hassan Teherani Moghaddam, the father of the IRGC missile program, has personally persecuted the project.”
It is unclear which level of nuclear loads of the GHAEM-100 missile would be capable of carrying in the range of 1,800 miles, although this is still shy than approximately 3,400 miles, it is necessary to be classified as intercontinental rocket.
Second place, located in the northern town of Semnan, Imam Khomeini Spaceport-Iranian first space onion-bounder, was only international titles last month when Tehran put his hardest rocket into space, carrying a burden of approximately 660 pounds, relying on a liquid drive.
According to the NCRI -A report, Iran uses this technology For the development of liquid fuel fuel, such as a Simorgh rocket with a range of more than 1800 miles, used to launch heavier satellites in space-but with the ability to wear nuclear guidelines.
Fluent fuel allows rockets to have a higher propulsive thrust, strength and control. Although heavier than solid fuel and requires more complex technology.
“Creating a space command of the IRGC Air Force used to camouflage The development of nuclear warheads Under the guise of satellite launch, with the additional giving of the regime of independent communication needed to run nuclear warheads, “Jafarzadeh told Fox News Digital.
The International Atomic Energy Agency warned earlier this month that Iran developed about £ 440 in the vicinity of a weapon enriched at 60% purity threshold 90% of the purity level required for the development of a nuclear bomb.
Although only some 92 pounds of Uranus with a weapon class Allegedly required to create one nuclear bombWhich means that if Iran, if he further enriched his urine, could own enough material for the development of five nuclear bombs.

However, Jafarzadeh warned that the international community should pay attention to Iranian activities outside the enrichment of Uranus.
“It is naive to focus only on calculating the amount or purity of enriched uranus without concentrating on the construction of a nuclear bomb or its delivery system,” he said. “All the integral components of the Iranian Mullah bomb giving.”
