The Shahab-1 (Persian: شهاب ۱, romanized: Ŝahāb 1, meaning "Meteor-1") was the foundation of the short-range Iranian missile program.[3] During the Iran–Iraq War, Iran purchased R-17 Elbrus missiles from Libya, Syria and North Korea (Hwasong-5). It is a close copy of Hwasong-5 (R-17).[4]

Iran began making the Shahab-1 sometime between 1985 and 1988.[3] Iran's Shahab-1 is a short-range ballistic missile derived from the Scud-B, and has a maximum range of 300 km (185 miles).[5]

Iran employed Shahab 1s extensively during the 1990s and early 2000s against Mujahidin-e Khalq Organization (MKO) camps in Iraq.[4]
