Al Hussein (missile)
Al Hussein or al-Husayn (Arabic: الحسين) is the designation of an Iraqi short-range ballistic missile. The missile was the result of upgrading the Soviet made Scud in order to achieve a longer range.

Iraq was the first belligerent to use long range artillery rockets during the Iran–Iraq War, firing limited numbers of 9K52 Luna-M, FROG-7s at the towns of Dezful and Ahvaz.

Iraq, which also deployed the Scud-B, was conversely unable to strike the main Iranian industrial centers, including the capital, Tehran, because these are located more than 300 miles from the border.
