Today marks the 15th anniversary of the death of Hassan Tehrani Moghaddam, the mechanical engineer and military strategist widely known as the "Father of Iran's Missile Program."
On November 12, 2011, Moghaddam was killed in an explosion at an Iranian missile facility, leaving behind a legacy that continues to shape the Middle East's strategic balance.
The story begins in the 1980s, when Iran relied on a small number of imported Scud-B missiles acquired through foreign partners. Facing missile attacks during the Iran-Iraq War, Iranian military planners began developing indigenous capabilities that would eventually evolve into a large domestic missile program. At the centre of that effort stood Hassan Tehrani Moghaddam, the man who founded and led much of Iran's early missile development work.
The documentary also examines recent events that have brought Iran's missile capabilities into global focus. The direct missile exchanges between Iran and Israel in 2024, and then between Iran and American Gulf military bases from 2026 onwards, renewed international attention on the effectiveness, scale, and evolution of Iran's missile forces, sparking worldwide debate about air defence systems, deterrence, and the changing balance of power in the Middle East.
Whether you're interested in military history, geopolitics, missile technology, or the history of the Middle East, this documentary provides a concise look at the people, events, and decisions that helped shape one of the region's most significant military programs.
