Houthi missiles

I’m making this thread in general for content related to Houthi rockets and missiles created from old soviet weapons. Slow bc I’m on my phone, but I’m going to lean heavily on Oryx and r/combatfootage for this, with a smattering of others
 
If Iran can supply Houthi rebels with 2,100km missiles, what is the point in the MTCR?

New ballistic, cruise and loitering missiles were shown by the Houthis in the recent military parade in Sanaa, Yemen. Among the new missiles on display was the Quds-3 cruise missile, believed to be a new, longer-range variant of the Iranian Soumar cruise missile.

Quds 3 – a new cruise missile. Like its two predecessors (Quds 1 and 2), Quds-3 is powered by a small turbojet engine, yet it is larger and capable of flying over a longer range. Quds cruise missiles are programmed to fly at a low level and have demonstrated effective radar avoidance capability. They are designed to perform precision attacks on a pre-programmed location based on the target coordinates. The missile achieves an initial velocity using a solid propellant booster which is separated once the missile achieves its cruising velocity.


According to the Iranwatch.org missile report, Quds-1 has a range of 800 km. The second-generation Quds-2, which corresponds with the Iranian Soumar (also known as Hoveyzeh) missiles, has a range of 1,350 km. The range of Quds 3 was not mentioned by the Houthis but is believed to be longer than Quds 2, as the missile diameter is larger, thus capable of carrying a larger fuel tank and warhead. These missiles are based on an Iranian derived from Soviet-era air-launched Kh55 cruise missiles acquired from Ukraine in the late 1990s. The range of Quds-1 is assumed to be 700 km, with Quds-3 achieving three times that range.

I think London and Paris may already be on the case just need to persuade Berlin.
Mind you the way things are in Vladland it may be the Houthi supplying drones to them.

Houthis Kill Innocent Civilians with More Reckless Attacks

At approximately 11:30 a.m. (Sanaa time) Mar. 6, an anti-ship ballistic missile (ASBM) was launched from Iranian-backed Houthi terrorist-controlled areas of Yemen toward M/V True Confidence, a Barbados-flagged, Liberian-owned bulk carrier, while transiting the Gulf of Aden. The missile struck...

Sunken Rubymar’s only UK link was its disputed insurance cover

<p>Yemeni Houthis sank the Belize-flagged bulker Rubymar on the basis of data that wrongly linked the Lebanese owners to a residential block of flats in Southampton. Now, amid a dispute between the ship’s owner and its insurer, it may fall to Yemen to clean up a fuel oil slick, 21,000 tonnes of...

Despite being widely reported as British-owned, it turns out that the only UK link to Rubymar was its insurance, which is now being disputed by the owners, who have been told that war risk was not part of the fixed-premium deal they signed up to.

Responsibility for the clean-up of oil spills would normally fall to the International Oil Pollution Compensation Funds. However Rubymar is a bulk carrier not an oil tanker and therefore IOPC Funds do not apply.

The International Convention on Civil Liability for Bunker Oil Pollution Damage could apply. However, the treaty states: “No liability for pollution damage shall attach to the shipowner if the shipowner proves that: (a) the damage resulted from an act of war, hostilities, civil war, insurrection or a natural phenomenon of an exceptional, inevitable and irresistible character.”

There's a veritable feast of potential targets Israel could hit if the Houthis persist.
