Russia is secretly helping Iran develop advanced supersonic cruise missiles, according to an investigation by the Financial Times. The secret program, lasting several years and codenamed C430L, involved some of Russia's most experienced missile specialists to assist Iran in developing a new class of weapons.
The investigation began in 2023 and extended through the period of the United States' war against Iran. The program's objective was to develop weapons capable of threatening aircraft carriers and other American warships in the Middle East.
The information was disclosed by the Financial Times newspaper, which revealed details of the military cooperation between the two countries in the technological development of missiles.
