New rocket to be tested in Iran
Iran will test a new satellite-carrier rocket in the near future, Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Commander Mohammad Ali Jafari announced on Sunday.
Jafari said that IRGC experts have managed to complete the project to manufacture the rocket, which had been initiated by Martyr Hassan Tehrani Moqaddam, the director of the IRGC Jihad Self-Sufficiency Organization, who was killed by two huge explosions on November 12, 2011 at an IRGC munitions depot near the town of Malard in Alborz Province.
