The Global Implications of Iran’s Missile and Space Programs<br />

Technical Addendum to the EWI Report, May 31 2009<br />

Main Finding and Conclusions<br />

• “The Sejjil should be able to carry a one ton warhead to a<br />

range of about 2200 Km.”<br />

• To threaten Northern and Western Europe, Iran will need a<br />

5000 Km missile with 1 ton warhead. Such a missile will<br />

require a first stage of about 45 tons and will have a take off<br />

weight of 65 tons or more.<br />

• With such size and weight, the hypothetical IRBM is not<br />

viable.<br />

• Hence, the recent Sejjil test does not alter any of the report’s<br />

main conclusions.<br />
