Iran tested on Wednesday domestically-designed anti-ship missiles as part of annual large-scale military exercises in the Persian Gulf, Iranian media said.
According to Al-Alam television, two Khalij Fars missiles were launched from a military base near the Strait of Hormuz and hit their designated targets.
The Khalij Fars is a single-stage solid-propellant, anti-ship ballistic missile with a range of 300 kilometers based on the Fateh-110 missile. It was unveiled in February 2011.
