The Aerospace Force of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) unveiled a vast underground facility housing advanced missiles on March 25, amid tensions with the United States.
Iranian state media said that the facility was only one of hundreds of “missile cities” that the IRGC Aerospace Force built across the country to store precision-guided ballistic missiles with a range covering most of the Middle East, such as Emad, Sejil, Qadr H, Kheibar Shekan, and Haj Qassem.
Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Major General Mohammad Hossein Bagheri and IRGC Aerospace Force Commander Amir Ali Hajizadeh appeared in official video footage of the unveiling.
The IRGC unveiled several “missile cities” over the last few months. However, this newest one appeared to feature a basic design with less security features. For example, the facility had no blast doors separating its different sections, which could endanger all missiles stored there in case of a fire or a strike.
Iran likely unveiled the facility to send a message of strength to the U.S., who has been increasing its pressure and bolstering its military presence in the Middle East.
Reports released earlier this month revealed that President Donald Trump’s gave a two-month ultimatum demanding that Iran negotiate a new nuclear agreement.
Trump also warned Tehran that continued Iranian support for subversive regional activities, like the Houthis’ repeated attacks on shipping in the Red Sea from Yemen, could trigger direct military confrontation with U.S. forces.
More recently, it was reported that the U.S. has positioned significant air power at the Diego Garcia base in the Indian Ocean, a strategic location enabling direct strikes across the Middle East. Military news site The War Zone documented on March 25 the presence of multiple B-2 Spirit stealth bombers at the facility.

this facility would be heavily compromised if a strike occurred due to basic lack of munitions separation. that said once reverse footage and different angles are ignored the entire site only houses 200 missiles and at what stage of readiness they are at is open to debate regarding fuel, rocket engines warheads etc.
this hints at more alarm than threat, if your hand was strong why would you tip it.
interesting how you first write about the basic lack of munition separation and then state that there must be at most 200 missles in the facility. what is your point? that they should house tens of thousands of missiles in one facility to satisfy you?
hasbara shlomo dont understand that theres no need to fill these tunnels up with rockets, because iranians have many of them all over the country.
only amerikunt this stupid
has iran no shame for its betrayal of syria?
not too bright
that’s a similar trait among some posters here.
blame the victim. divert, deflect, deceive. don’t look here, look over there. blame iran, blame the pope, blame the pixies. just don’t mention the jooz.
actually the “jooz” work for the pope. rothschild is famously referred to as “the vatican’s banker”.
if you have iran and russia as allies, you don’t need any enemies. donald dump will teach huthi the hard way.
chumpo will soon lose one of his little battleships. his presidency will be the 2nd biggest failure in us history. (the 1st was his previous presidency.)
the war was going to happen regardless of who is president. remember the obomber? (bombed libya, syria, and yemen, killing 1.2 million civilians)
russia has made a deal with their western zionist partners.
good point. there are many zionists in russia as well as in the us. guess where there are basically none? europe. so europe goes down.
big dearth of hook noses in china too. they’re wide awake to the vermin, and more than capable of matching them. russia’s run by them, the chess master being their vanguard entity.
the same missiles that the houthi’s use and that isreal just shoots out of the sky.
iran can’t defeat the antichrist while most people in the world love and support the antichrist. that probably includes you.
the landfill jews haven’t a chance against iran however many f35s and bunkerbusters they are handed by the americ*nts. the c*nts know that attacks on jemen will change nothing and suddenly the houthis will hit a carrier and the c*nts will find out that feets on the ground in jemen won’t change the situation one iota however strong the c*nts believe they are! and the landfill jews can’t do anything about iran!
no, they don’t. if you weren’t just a zionist shill you would know that the “houthis” always fire two missiles. one of them is subsonic and the “david’s sling” hits it. the hypersonic one gets through and does quite a bit of damage but there is no way israel will ever admit to it or let anyone else see the results.
and? what gibberish you offer the readers – apply your brain if you have one (which is doubtful).
and russia won’t lift a finger to help their iranian “ally”.
russia supports antichrist israel and is merely helping to destroy iran.
good cop, bad cop.
they are the minority ar me and plus they are russia allies so their toasted
you really shouldn’t be openly advertising the existence of these sorts of installations.
quite strange isn’t it ? if some microbes with the virulence of bubonic plague get seeded in iran (as was covid), as well may be the case soon, then this underground complex, as with the others, could be death traps. can we presume the iranians have factored in such a scenario, and prepared for it ?
why not? now if they had given the coordinates i would agree. this is but one of a large number of bases, some of them 500 meters deep. nuke-hardened, unfortunately none of these missiles can reach diego garcia, but every other us base in the middle east is in deep trouble. and no, usa can’t shoot them down.
they must reassure the native irian population . you will never see launching site locations . but there will be many .
iran shouldn’t reveal anything, old adage of say nothing stands true. the zionist entity and american lapdogs will only use it as an opportunity/excuse to justify another globalist attack.
i wonder if iran and russia will be as good of allies to each other as they were to syria?
heheheh
god protect iran from the beast occupying palestine. should war break out humanity will cheer the destruction of the khazar filth in occupied palestine. go iran, together with hamas, houthis and hezbollah. humanity prays for total victory against the joo bea$t and its minions.
don’t go upsetting the hasbara fleabags here.
cidade dos mísseis
our lgbt military bark like submissive female chihuahua—iran laughs in our face
iran needs to develop and then test a nuke, nothing short will give the us and its zionist masters pause for thought.
to have the dwarf from moscow as an ally, cantinflas is better.
muahahahaha 😆😆😆
