Pentagon report says Iran improving its range and lethality of its ballistic missiles, according to Bloomberg. The report says missile improvements are in addition to deployment of new ships and submarines.

According to Bloomberg, the report was distributed to four congressional defense committees last week in accordance with a 2010 directive to provide annual classified and unclassified assessments of Iran’s military capabilities. The article said the unclassified reports are meant to update Congress on Iran's latest "asymmetric capabilities" being developed to counter Western military strength. The article states that the Pentagon report echoes a U.S. assessment that Iran with “sufficient foreign assistance may be technically capable of flight-testing” an intercontinental ballistic missile by 2015. 
Iran “would present a formidable force while defending Iranian territory,” the Pentagon wrote in the report, according to Bloomberg. “We assess with high confidence” that for 30 years Iran “has methodically cultivated a network of sponsored terrorist surrogates capable of targeting U.S. and Israeli interests. We suspect this activity continues.” (Bloomberg).
