# Tondar (missile)

Tondar Missile (Persian: تندر) is an Iranian Anti-tank guided missile fired from the barrels of T-72 tanks. This Iranian missile which has been manufactured by Ministry of Defence and Armed Forces Logistics (Iran), is launched from a 125 mm cannon barrel. Tondar-missile is able to destroy diverse targets at 4 kilometers distances.

Iranian experts have applied the capabilities of the Tosan (missile) in the manufacturing process of Tondar-missile, that means: this anti-tank missile has the capability to target both fixed/moving targets on land and sea. In the meanwhile, this missile has the capability of destroying low-speed flying targets; and that's due to the kind of Tondar guidance. It is said to be a copy of the AT-11 Sniper Soviet missile. The warhead of the Tondar missile is lighter than that of the AT-11 Sniper missile which may indicate design changes or poor data reporting.

According to the commander of the Islamic Republic of Iran's army in the Fars region: "It was the first time that in the exercise of Beit al-Moqaddas 26 in May 2014, three Iranian missiles of Dehlaviyeh, Tondar and Tusan were tested."
