The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) of Iran has unveiled a new underground "rocket city" — a large-scale tunnel complex where some of the country's most modern weapons are stored. The facility, estimated to be tens of kilometers long, was demonstrated with the participation of senior military officials, including Major General Mohammad Hossein Bagheri, Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, and Amir Ali Hajizadeh, Commander of the IRGC Aerospace Forces.
Modern arsenal in the dungeons
Footage distributed by state media shows missile systems, including ballistic missiles "Heybar Shekan", "Gadr-X", "Sejila" and "Hajj Qassem", as well as cruise missiles "Paveh Land Attacker". These complexes are capable of hitting targets at ranges up to 2000 km, which makes them a key element of deterrence in the region.
The strategic importance of the facility
Underground bases like this one allow Iran to protect its arsenals from external attacks. Earlier, the IRGC had already reported on two similar complexes, including a base with tunnels with a total length of 5,000 km. Experts note that such structures enhance the stability of the Iranian air defense./Missile defense amid growing tensions with the West and Israel.
