Iran’s Revolutionary Guards unveil underground missile facility for naval warfare
[IsraelTimes] State TV says base holds ‘hundreds of cruise missiles,’ which IRCG chief Salami asserts can ‘create hell for enemy vessels’

The naval arm of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps unveiled a new underground missile facility on the south coast in footage aired by state television
... and if you can't believe state television who can you believe?
Saturday, two weeks after unveiling an underground naval base.

"Hundreds of cruise missiles capable of countering enemy destroyers’ electronic warfare are stationed in these underground cities," the station said in its report.

"The systems are being kept hundreds of meters underground and can be operational in a very short time," it said, without giving an exact location of the base.

"These systems and missiles can be armed and fired from hundreds of kilometers away and can hit targets far out at sea."

IRGC chief General Hossein Salami toured the base with naval arm commander Rear Admiral Alireza Tangsiri.

The report also unveiled a new model of cruise missile dubbed Ghadr-380 which Tangsiri said had "anti-jamming capabilities" and a range of more than 1,000 kilometers (over 600 miles).

He said the new missiles could "create hell for enemy vessels."

Last month, the Guards unveiled an underground naval base for assault boats operating in Iran’s southern waters, which include the Gulf and the strategic Strait of Hormuz.

In early January, Iran’s armed forces began a series of exercises, dubbed Eqtedar (Might in Farsi), which are set to continue until mid-March.

The drills have included naval maneuvers that saw the unveiling of an advanced reconnaissance ship as well as exercises on safeguarding Iran’s nuclear facilities from attack by Israel or the United States.

The military exercises come as Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
waits to see what policy US President Donald Trump
...So far he's been unkillable, and they've tried....
will follow in his second term.

During his first term that ended in 2021, Trump pursued a policy of "maximum pressure" against Iran, withdrawing the United States from a landmark nuclear deal between Iran and major powers, and reimposing biting sanctions.
