Commander Mohammad Ali Jafari, who heads the elite military force, the Revolutionary Guards, said the missile -- named 'Persian Gulf' -- had a range of 300 kilometres (185 miles).
'Iran is mass producing a smart ballistic missile for sea targets with a speed three times more than the speed of sound,' state news agency IRNA quoted Jafari as saying about the new missile.
He said the missile was 'undetectable and can't be neutralised by enemies,' without specifying the name. 'It has very high precision in destroying targets,' Jafari added."

NATO Missile Defense for Europe
NATO has agreed to provide ballistic missile defense or BMD for all of Europe. This NATO BMD will protect NATO (European and American) military forces in Europe. It will also – for the very first time – protect the civilian population throughout Europe from ballistic missiles and weapons of mass destruction launched from the Middle East.
Much of this NATO missile defense for Europe – known as the European Phased Adaptive Approach – will actually be provided by the United States armed forces. This will include seaborne AEGIS missile defense on board US Navy ships in the Mediterranean, as well as land based radars and interceptor missiles.
This e-book describes how NATO missile defense for Europe will be organized and implemented.
