🇷🇺🇮🇷Russia has secretly assisted Iran in developing hypersonic cruise‑missile technology through a covert program codenamed C430L, according to the Financial Times based on leaked Russian correspondence, travel records, and military‑technology documents. 🔹 The program began in 2023 and involves Russia’s state arms exporter Rosoboronexport and the missile manufacturer NPO Mashinostroyenia. Russian specialists analyzed Iran’s flight‑test data and provided technical support on ramjet propulsion, including fuel‑system design, combustion stability, air‑intake configuration, and engine‑nozzle performance. 🔹 Missile expert Fabian Hinz said: “This is the transfer of highly sensitive strategic military technology from Russia—something the Iranians have been trying to obtain for decades.” Iran has built and flight‑tested a ramjet propulsion system, although there is no evidence yet of operational deployment with Russian assistance. 🌟Subscribe / Send news / Boost
