According to Fox News, Iran launched a Mersad surface-to-air missile from the Semnan launch site Feb. 8 in its third missile test since U.S. President Donald Trump took office. Iranian Defense Minister Hossein Dehghan denies the allegations. Regardless, it is odd that such an event is garnering attention at all. It is extremely common for countries to test surface-to-air missiles: The United States and other major military powers test similar missiles almost daily. It seems that U.S. media outlets may have confused concern over another planned launch with the one on Feb. 8. Iran had been planning to launch what U.S. officials believed was a Safir rocket — a 2-stage expendable launch vehicle modeled off the Shahab ballistic missile family — from the Semnan launch facility, likely over the weekend in celebration of the 38th anniversary of the Iranian Revolution.
