Satellite Images Reveal Possible New Ballistic Missile Base in Iran

Satellite images by Capella Space reveal concrete structures and what appear to be tunnel entries in what Israeli-based The Intel Lab says might be a new ballistic missile base.
So IDF already knows. Good.
According to The Intel Lab, which describes itself as an intelligence consultancy, construction at the site began in around 2005, with two tunnels being excavated 400 metres below crest level.

The site is reported to be 28 kilometres northwest of Isfahan City Centre in central Iran.

In 2008-2009 ventilation shafts appeared on the site, and rough estimations of spoils showed that 500,000 cubic metres were excavated for the two tunnels and underground facilities, the company said.

Arched formwork and concrete production were in progress between 2011 and 2019, but with no major excavation, while between around August 2019 and the end of the year, 10 metre-high platforms were raised at each tunnel entrance and reinforced with bars of concrete.

The Intel Lab drew parallels to Sangnam-ni Missile Base in North Korea
...hereditary Communist monarchy distinguished by its truculence and periodic acts of violence. Distinguishing features include Songun (Army First) policy, which involves feeding the army before anyone but the Dear Leadership, and Juche, which is Kim Jong Il's personal interpretation of Marxism-Leninism, which he told everybody was brilliant. In 1950 the industrialized North invaded agrarian South Korea. Twenty-one countries of the United Nations eventually contributed to the UN force opposing the invasion, with the United States providing around 90% of the military personnel. Seventy years later the economic results are in and it doesn't look good for Juche...
, saying that the objects have similar concepts, with platforms at the tunnel entrance and pads.

Last month, Fox News reported an underground ballistic missile facility in southwestern 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...
