West doubts Iran missile claims
摘自简氏防务周刊
Western intelligence sources have expressed doubts over Iranian claims regarding a series of indigenously developed missiles presented during the 'Holy Prophet' manoeuvres conducted on 31 March-6 April in the Gulf of Oman and the Strait of Hormuz.
西方情报机构对伊朗最近宣称的一系列的自己开发的导弹表示了怀疑。伊朗3月31号到4月六号在Oamn海湾和Hormuz海峡举行了代号为Holy Prophet的演习，试射了这些导弹。
The exercise began with a launch of what was described by Iranian Television as "Fajr-3 - a radar-evading missile capable of hitting multiple targets". However, while the 'Fajr-3' is generally accepted as the designation of an Iranian-developed 240 mm unguided rocket with a range of 70 km (and is also the designation of an older Iranian light aircraft), Western intelligence sources claim that what was actually tested was a Shahab 2 short-range ballistic missile, a variant of the Russian 'Scud C'.
演习中试射的导弹伊朗电视台称作Fajr-3：一种可以躲避雷达的可以袭击多个目标的导弹。然而Fajr-3通常被认为是伊朗开发的240mm的射程为70km非制导导弹的名称（也被认为是伊朗的一个轻型航空器的名称），西方情报机构认为此导弹是Shahab 2短程弹道导弹，一个俄罗斯的Scud C变种。
"Developing a manoeuvring stealthy ballistic missile with multiple warheads is beyond Iran's technological capabilities," Uzi Rubin, former director of Israel's Ballistic Missiles Defence Organisation, told Jane's. "I think the Iranians went too far with their claims, considering that US satellites could easily detect and classify any missile launched there. It could be that the excessive description was meant to uplift internal morale."
“开发一种可秘密部署的多弹头导弹超出了伊朗的技术能力，”以色列的弹道导弹防卫部门的前主管Uzi Rubin说，“我认为伊朗实际和他们宣称的相差太大了，考虑到美国的卫星能很容易的检测和区分这里发射的导弹，此导弹可能是为了振奋国内民众的一种过度渲染”
