Russian-Iranian satellite and missile cooperation has grown substantially over the past ten to fifteen years, and there are sufficient grounds to suggest that the scale of the two countries collaboration in this field is much higher and more focused than many in the West are aware. At a time when both Moscow and Tehran are taking bolder measures to counter U.S. and Western interests, growing trends of Russian support to Iran s satellite and missile program development cannot be ignored. This article correlates Russian direct and indirect assistance to the progressive development of Iran s satellite and missile program, addressing Iranian assets including the Mesbah satellite, Sina-1 satellite, and Zohreh satellite platforms as well as the Shahab-3, Shahab-4, and Shahab-5 ballistic missiles.
