World | Iran New Photos Reveal Secret Iran Missile Site Tehran 5 years from long-range weapon, spy pics suggest By Jason Farago Posted Apr 11, 2008 1:24 PM CDT Copied Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad delivers a speech during a ceremony marking " Nuclear Technology National Day" in Tehran, Iran, Tuesday, March 8, 2008. (AP Photo) New satellite photographs reveal Iran's hastened production of long-range missiles, the Times of London reports, and in a previously unknown site capable of hitting Europe. Experts say an increasingly fractious Tehran looks to be about five years away from developing a ballistic missile—in line with the recent American intelligence estimate. In February, UN weapons inspectors confronted Tehran with evidence of design studies for a nuclear warhead, but the Iranians insisted that the rocket in question was part of a civilian space program. The new photographs contradict that claim: a production and testing facility for missiles stands right next to the rocket's launch site. Read These Next This is no ordinary winter storm on the way.
