Today, Saturday, the Aerospace Forces of the Islamic Revolution's Guard Corps revealed two bases for missiles and drones, in the presence of the IRGC Commander-in-Chief.

These two bases include surface-to-surface missile systems with advanced equipment, as well as attack drones capable of penetrating enemy air defense and avoiding radars. 

The Commander revealed that "the ability to operate and launch missiles has increased by more than six to seven times," adding, "We have significantly reduced the time and distance of preparing and launching missiles."

This is the first time that the IRGC Aerospace Forces have revealed underground drone bases.

Local media reported that "the presence of drones with a range of 2,000 km, dual missile launchers, and multiple missile launchers, which were recently revealed during the Great Prophet 17 maneuvers, show the outstanding effectiveness of these bases in defending and protecting the security of Iran and the Iranian people against any threat."
