The Nasr-1 ({{langx|fa|نصر-۱}}) is an Iranian anti-ship cruise missile. According to its export catalog, it can destroy 1,500-tonne targets such as small frigates. Nasr-1 missile can be launched from both inland bases and offshore military vessels, and is being modified to be fired from helicopters and submarines.

The missile has a cigarette shaped body with four large foldable fins attached to the middle part and four smaller ones attached to the end of the missile near the exhaust.

In December 2008, an Iranian naval force successfully test-fired the surface-to-surface Nasr-1 during the final stage of "Unity 87" wargames in the Persian Gulf waters. Following the successful test firing, on 7 March 2010, Iran's defence minister announced mass-production of Nasr-1 missiles.{{Cite web | url=http://www.payvand.com/news/10/mar/1058.html |title = Photos: Iran launches short-range cruise missile production line}}{{Cite web | url=http://english.aljazeera.net/news/middleeast/2010/03/201037133643451414.html |title = Breaking News, World News and Video from al Jazeera}}{{Cite web |url=http://english.farsnews.com/newstext.php?nn=8812161108 |title=Fars News Agency :: Iran Starts Mass-Production of Nasr 1 Cruise Missiles |access-date=7 March 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100309112838/http://english.farsnews.com/newstext.php?nn=8812161108 |archive-date=9 March 2010 |url-status=dead }}
