The Navy of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) unveiled on January 18 an underground base accommodating various combat vessels.
The IRGC’s official news outlet Sepah News described the underground base as one of several “cities” for the guard’s navy.
The was unveiled in a ceremony attended by IRGC’s Chief Commander Hossein Salami and Alireza Tangsiri, commander of the naval forces, the report said.
In his remarks at the ceremony, Salami said the IRGC’s Navy operates many such underground bases housing different combat, missile-launching, and mine-laying vessels. He also emphasized that the newly unveiled base is only a small part of the force’s overall defense capabilities.
“We assure the great nation of Iran that their young people are capable of coming out honorable and victorious from a battle on the seas against enemies big and small,” Salami said.
Iran’s state television said that the base was built at a depth of 500 meters somewhere in the Gulf. Footage of the base showed tunnels with long rows of what it said were a new version of Taregh-class radar-evading speed boats that can launch cruise missiles, and said that some of the vessels were “capable of destroying United States warships and destroyers.”
Earlier this month, Iran started military exercises that are due to last two months and have already included war games in which the IRGC defended nuclear installations in Natanz against mock attacks by missiles and drones. It also unveiled an underground “missile city”.
The recent moves by the Iranian military and the IRGC appear to be an attempt to deter both the U.S. and Israel. Recent media reports suggest that Israel will be shifting focus to Iran after the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and that U.S. President-elect Donald Trump is planning to ramp up pressure against Tehran and may even consider strikes against the country’s nuclear facilities.

a bunker bomb can only penetrate 61 metres and it would need to be dropped overhead by a bomber so bar the area being nuked its pretty impenetrable .another point is that they cant be seen by spy satellites , iran has many such installations built into mountains .
very good, the iranians know what will count at a later date and the jews will send spies galore to find out the secrets of iran’s secret weapons, to no avail. thenjews will have to make do with whatever the americ*nts can come up with, second ratecrap. and thenjews will then be clearedoff the face of earth – to the benefit of mankind.
one thing for sure is if god supposedly promised abraham this land, at least be the actual seed it was promised to which most of the current citizens of state of israel are not even those people, they are genetically essentially from turkie and not even sons of shem or semites at all. smh.
all the stuff iranians make is a bunch of trash and a waste of money. one day of joint israeli-us-nato combined air, naval, missile, cyber, and other unconventional strikes on oil,nuclear,military,command-leadership targets and the mullahs regime will collapse faster than the assad regime did recently.
without funding from bidens web they’re out of action .
btw who funded that?
compared to the jews, the iranians are technical geniuses producing stuff the soon to be gone jews can only dream of making or are provided by the americ*nts and we all know what crap the c*nts are selling to the world!!
pleople will be much happier now cause iran used their money not just well to fund the resistance axis that has fully collapsed besides the huthis but build underground bases as well. people will surely understand that repairing the gas supply isreal has damaged when they “hit nothing” last year was much less important.
russia and china should just build military bases in iran, and jam pack the place with weapons.
