Photos showed shiny missiles that looked metallic and did not indicate any soft surfaces designed to absorb radar signals so they are not reflected back. Only Russia claims to have stealth ballistic missiles, which it wants to be able to penetrate American anti-missile systems. Iran would be interested in a stealth missile to be able to penetrate both American and Israeli anti-missile defenses. The fact that the United States isn’t interested in a stealth ballistic missile says something of what it thinks of Russian anti-missile systems. The US Air Force used to have a stealth cruise missile, but those were retired in 2008 suggesting the Air Force is so unimpressed by Middle Eastern air defenses that it felt no need for such a weapon.
